PlayStation is bringing again a function from the PlayStation 4 to its digital retailer, one that ought to have by no means been eliminated within the first place.
I’m going to be so sincere with you, I hate the PlayStation 5 UI. I like the console itself however I hate the house display and I’m not a fan of the digital retailer structure both.
It’s for that reason that I have a tendency to take a look at the most recent releases both on my telephone with the PlayStation app, or on-line through the online.
Nevertheless the web site model of the PlayStation Retailer has its personal set of points, a few of which have lately been fastened by Sony.
Again when the PlayStation 4 was Sony’s fundamental house console, the PlayStation Retailer web site was fairly good. You could possibly discover video games you have been serious about, take a gander at some screenshots and infrequently watch one of many recreation’s trailers, normally the announcement one.
When the PlayStation 5 rolled round these options have been minimize for no matter cause. You’d have the ability to learn an outline for the sport you have been , however wouldn’t have the ability to see it.
Why on Earth Sony would do that is past me, as there’s by no means been a time the place I haven’t wished to see a product first earlier than I purchase it.

Now half of these options have made a comeback. Now, the online model of the PlayStation Retailer helps screenshots, however you continue to can’t see a trailer for the sport you’re serious about.
Screenshots paint an honest image of what a recreation is like, however you solely get the complete image once you really see it in motion. I am nonetheless hoping that trailers make a return, it continues to baffle me.
Fortunately the console model of the PlayStation Retailer doesn’t have this difficulty. However like I stated, I hate having to navigate it once I’m not simply testing the gross sales or seeing if any of my wishlisted video games are on supply.
They’re easy design philosophies, so it’s bizarre that we’re nonetheless having to ask for them in 2026, particularly when different on-line shops like Steam or the Nintendo eShop don’t appear to have this drawback.
I’m positive this feels lots like an outdated man yelling at a cloud however I can’t assist however be just a little peeved by it, and hopefully the screenshots coming again is an efficient signal that trailers are coming again too.
