Regarding transfers from PS5 to PS4, backward compatibility focuses mainly on playing PS4 games on PS5, not directly transferring recent game progress or data between the consoles. However, for some games, if you use the same PlayStation Network account on both systems, you may access your game saves via cloud storage, if the game supports cross-save functionality. Always check the game's details for compatibility features to ensure a seamless experience.
