Video transcript

No, two people cannot use the same PlayStation account simultaneously. When one user logs into a PlayStation Network account, it will automatically log out if another attempts to log in from a different console. To share games, use the 'Primary PS4' feature on one console and sign in with a separate sub-account on another. This way, family members can access the shared content while maintaining their individual accounts and progress.
