Many people rely on a VPN when surfing the Internet – why not for gaming too? Is the extra security for the Sony PS5 worth it?

Hamburg – meanwhile everyone knows VPNs. If you don’t want to share your Internet history with your own network provider or avoid geo-blocking from streaming providers such as Netflix, HBO Max or Hulu, you are well advised to use a VPN on your own computer or smartphone. But what about gaming: is a VPN worthwhile for the Sony PS5 and what can you do with it on the Sony console?

VPN for the PS5: Actually not supported, but still very easy to set up

Is there even a VPN for the PS5? Not a bad question, because VPNs are not actually supported natively for Sony’s flagship console. Actually, because providers like CyberGhost VPN have made it their task to provide gamers with an encrypted VPN connection – on PS3, PS4 and PS5. The VPN provider has over 15 years of expertise in the market, serves over 38 million customers worldwide and has an excellent rating on Trustpilot.

Setting up CyberGhost VPN on a console is a little trickier than simply downloading an app, but it’s still very simple: entering a Smart DNS on your PlayStation of choice is enough. Apart from gaming, CyberGhost VPN is of course also available for all common platforms. Particularly practical: With the VPN, users can access 7 simultaneous connections.

Why do you need a VPN on the PS5? Frequent streamers will already know: A VPN gives you access to streaming services from other countries. For example, if you want to get a taste of the immense line-up of Netflix US without much effort, you can quickly bypass geo-blocking with a VPN. As far as is known, it becomes particularly interesting on the PS5 in connection with a VPN if you want to use the various PlayStation Stores from Sony. From time to time there are still games that don’t make it onto the European market.

A VPN on the PS5 is a real door opener for your own gaming experience.

VPN for the PS5: Not only geoblocking, a more stable connection is also possible

Does a VPN offer any other benefits for the PS5? You would think that VPNs would result in higher ping times when gaming, but the opposite is true. A VPN, like CyberGhost’s, can even stabilize the connection when gaming on the PS5. Some network providers recognize the high data consumption of a gaming connection and throttle the bandwidth of such users while gaming.

However, those who hide themselves with a VPN cannot be throttled either. Theoretically, a VPN can in some cases even ensure a more stable gaming experience on the PS5 – at the same time, your own data that goes out while gaming is encrypted by CyberGhost VPN: A win-win situation.
