Nah, PS5 doesn’t natively support PS3 games—gotta use PlayStation Now if you wanna play them.

Unfortunately, the PS5 isn't directly backwards compatible with PS3 games. You can, however, stream some PS3 titles through the PlayStation Now service.

I tried popping in my PS3 discs, but the PS5 won’t play them. Ended up using PlayStation Now instead!
