Gamers may want to factory reset their PlayStation consoles for various reasons. They could either be selling or trading the console, trying to fix performance issues, troubleshooting software problems, or simply starting afresh.
No matter what your reason is for having your PlayStation 5 factory reset, it is very straightforward. Here are the steps brought to you by PVP Live.
- On your Home screen, navigate and proceed to the Settings menu.
- Scroll to the section where you can find System.
- Tap System Software.
- Then, tap Reset Options.
From here, you’ll have some options to choose from:
- Total factory reset (this wipes every data from your PlayStation 5)
- Restore all default settings without wiping your data
Once you have gone through those steps and options, sit back and wait patiently for your console to complete the process. There you have it.
