Yes, you can play PS3 games on your PS5, but you'll need PlayStation Now to stream them. Sadly, there's no direct backward compatibility for PS3 discs or downloads.

Unfortunately, PS5 doesn't support PS3 games natively. But you can stream them using PlayStation Now, which has a good selection of PS3 titles.

Nope! PS5 only supports PS4 games directly. For PS3 games, you gotta use PlayStation Now.

Trust me, I tried playing my old PS3 discs on my PS5, and it won't work. PlayStation Now's your best bet for PS3 classics.
