Re: NFS PS4 data transfer to PS5?

I still can’t transfer my data over to the ps5, I have a USB flash drive & PS Plus Cloud. I see I have 71mb data saved & it transfer over but still making me play off of lvl 1 new game with nothing. I go to my data & it adds 10mb for game progression, really EA I’m so upset with this bs.

    PLEASE READ!!


    Hey dude I’ve been searching forums frantically because my heart legit dropped when I realized I started with the same old beginning cutscenes. So I hope this helps, I’m gnna do them by steps to make it as easy as possible and break it down Barney style. 1)Pop in /and or download need for speed.

    2)make sure it’s updated by pressing options over the title and check for update.

    3)once it’s up to date, scroll up on the same sub-category menu of the need for speed title.

    4)should be the third option from the top, “UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD SAVED DATA” select that option.

    5) once selected, it will bring you to an option between console storage with a ps5 logo to the left of it and underneath, the second option is cloud storage with the PlayStation plus logo with a cloud to the left and the word “download” to the right.

    6)select the second option at the bottom”download”.

    7)once you select “download” it will ask “download all or select and download”, choose the “select and download” option.

    8)Once you do that it will bring you to a screen of all the files for need for speed that you have saved on the PlayStation plus cloud.

    9) check off all the boxes next to the files and select download.

    10)once all have been downloaded, start up the need for speed game and cross your fingers.

    Alright dude I really really really hope this works!

    ps. If you’ve never had PlayStation plus prior to playing need for speed or atleast have the option of automatically upload data to cloud whilst playing need for speed at any given time whilst on your old ps4, I’m afraid none of this will work. HOPE SOMEONE FINDS THIS USEFUL!!

  • I tried what you said but it did not work. if i am in the home screen of ps5 i can see at progress 30%, but if i load up the game or upload saved up data i will still be lvl 1... pls help

  • Doesn’t work for me either. Can see the size of the file on the console matches the cloud version. Deleted and redownloaded checking all boxes. Still not working. It says detecting save, looks like it’s loaded then starts a new game

    Same for me didn’t work. Why can’t EA transfer the data from distance. 

  • THANK YOU!!! I was stuck for three days trying to find a way to get my progress to transfer and this worked and it was so easy.
