Thankyou for the help. It unfortunately didn’t work. I’m sure this has to of happened to someone else. There must be a solution. I wonder if it has anything to do with me playing the PS4 game on ps5. It shouldn’t since they are backward compatible. Anyway, thanks for the advice.
Hi @LeoLionRoar1983 ,
I can confirm to you that BF4 Premium works perfectly fine on the PS5, as migrated myself to this some weeks back from PS4.
Regarding your access to the DLC maps then I recall this being a frequent problem in the old days also, particular for the players that had bought and installed the BF4 baseline version and then later acquired the Premium edition. I checked your online profile so can confirm that the system does recognize you having the full Premium grade, so that thing is in order on the EA server side. So it therefore most probably is related to the license management on your PS5 that has not yet eradicated the BF4 baseline license to replace it with the higher grade Premium.
So just asking, to ensure, though you may already have done this during your installs: Have you already made a total cold reboot of your PS5 since you made the Premium upgrade and downloading of all the DLC maps? It can otherwise by default just fall back into the hibernation mode, which doesnt reinitialize your license levels as the ones read at last cold boot will be hanging in the cached system memory.
You can also force a refresh of your user license codes by doing the following steps:
- Open Settings
- Choose PlayStation Network/Account Management.
- Choose Restore Licenses
- Choose Restore
- Now cold reboot your PS5 and start the game and test to see if works.
If still not working, then next thing to try is to first deactivate and then reactivate your new PS5 as your Primary PlayStation!
If you have your old PS4 around, then that is often blocking the PS5 to be recognized as a new primary account holder. And the Premium BF4 game license can only be active on one PlayStation at a time, so this is the way to solve that problem.
Best of luck with it!
