To share games between accounts on PlayStation, you should set up 'Console Sharing and Offline Play' on the primary PS5 console or activate your PS4 as your primary system. This allows all user accounts on that console to play games purchased by one user account. On PS5, go to Settings > Users and Accounts > Other > Console Sharing and Offline Play and enable it. On PS4, it’s Settings > Account Management > Activate as Your Primary PS4 > Activate. Remember, you can only have one primary console at a time for each platform.
