    I get that. But it’s not like the game is broken or unplayable. Just the upgraded version of the game you wanted isn’t ready when we expected it to be. It happens. It’ll be working soon enough. Rule of thumb is don’t make plans on launch day for eso. Ever. It never goes as planned and that’s just how it is.

    Or the devs could actually test things and not release them before they’re ready lol

    This is not a ZOS thing, this is entirely a Sony issue. ZOS has no control how their product is purchased on the PSN store. Sony needs to rectify how it can be purchased. If you buy the base game again the PS5 version does work.

    Some repurchased the game and still have no access to the ps5 version. I don’t understand this post

    Everyone I know that have repurchased the game have the PS5 version. I don't know who you are talking to but about 25+ people in my discords said it did work.

    You could be correct I’m just going off what some posters said on Reddit 🤷‍♂️

    Edit: anyone who had to repurchase deserves some crowns if they can’t get their money back from Sony

    If you've downloaded a game from the PS store and played it you can't get a refund, its in the T's and C's, the only way you can get a refund on a psn download is if you don't play it

    Refunds are for people who buy things by accident only really, not for people that got impatient because a patch didn't drop the exact time they expected it to

    Sony’s refund policy is still stuck in the dark ages and needs an update, how can you know if you’ll like a game without playing it first lol

    I agree it needs to be updated to meet modern standards but honestly it’s been retail store policies here in the states since the 90’s to not accept returns on games once the plastic wrap was broken. You could make the argument then about renting games and demos being more of a thing than today giving you a feel for things. We need more demos these days.

    Hey all! Glad to see some of you found the download. Here are the exact steps if anyone needs them:

    On the PlayStation 5, navigate to the PS5 version on the PlayStation™Store by either using the overflow menu “(…)” on the ESO game hub or by opening the PlayStation Store and searching for “The Elder Scrolls Online: PS5 Upgrade”. You can then begin the download from the PS5 product page. Note that you may have to go through the normal purchase and install process as if you have purchased a new game (it will be free).

    BIG thanks to the team at ZOS and their PlayStation liaisons who managed to get a fix out same day.

    Nearly midnight here so "same day" is pushing it a little, but I am thankful for the guarantee of a PS5 quality play session tomorrow!

    Is it just me? Or is there not much of a difference. I mean I only experienced Coldharbour a smidge, and maybe it’s just because it’s dark and dank, but on the main menu looking at my characters? I don’t see a difference.

    Tbh the main difference is when you switch to performance mode and it runs at 60fps

    The shadows are also noticeably better

    Draw distance seems to be about 50% further. I don't remember being able to see all the way into the entrance to elden root from the undaunted camp before

    I havnt noticed a single frame drop or stutter, which were pretty bad on PS5 after the latest dlc dropped

    It's better to just use performance mode unless you are desperate to play in 4k, the only difference between performance and fidelity are the resolution and framerate, you get the same graphical upgrades on both modes

    I have the same issue. I did as they suggested earlier today as i have both the disc and digital versions, and went ahead and stuck in the disc to update. Now that the digital version was "fixed" attempting to upgrade the digital version has not worked. Restoring licenses still throws an error for TESO. Sony support said they still see an issue on their end when it comes to the digital version upgrade so hopefully it is on their radar.
