PS4 Saves Are Compatible with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order on PS5

I wonder if this is something Sony changed with a system update (and kept quiet about it) or if these devs found some workaround that others (including Sony 1st party) couldn’t - which would be kinda weird.

Does trophies transfer to the PS5 as well? I’ve platinum Fallen Order already. Can anyone confirm this? Haven’t installed Fallen Order in my PS5 yet.

So a big F U to people without PS+ or USB sticks to transfer their save from their PS4 to their new PS5. Got it.

@Milktastrophe who are theses people without USB sticks?

@TwomanybuttonS I know, right?

@BuGGy2DaB - Yep! The FAQ page from the devs states trophies do carry over for the PS5 version!

“All your trophies/achievements that were unlocked in the previous generation version of the game will unlock on the next-gen version if you transfer your save.”

@Milktastrophe You can also transfer save data and downloaded games via other means (like an Ethernet cable between the two systems).

There’s no F U to anyone here. The technology you’re speaking of is far beyond established around the world at this point.

If you’re in an area that doesn’t have USB drives or Ethernet cables, I can’t imagine the PS5 will be easy to come by either. 🤔

Sweet! Free platinum

@Icey664 Kind of a free platinum, over on psnprofiles a few people are having a few not pop and you have to go back to earn it. Even though my cloud save was 100% when it downloaded it reverted to 99% and I had to grind skill points again as I was missing a few skills. Nothing too bad though and 2 free plats in a week along with FFVII

I'm glad it was an auto-pop platinum because I'm sure I remember the game looking and performing better on PS4 than I just witnessed on my PS5.

Sadly I didn’t get the auto platinum. I loaded up my 100% file and the only auto pop up was the Full House trophy. Closed the game and booted up again and not getting my all of my auto trophies. EA needs to fix this!

I'm getting ps5 trophies, the difference is yet to be revealed as I have just completed the prologue. Haptic vibration is a big upgrade but triggers aren't overused for the game..

@peppermillian
It's even easier to transfer with your WIFI.

That's nice, I played the game last night, but the game keep crashing, it seems we have to fully download the game before playing it, unlike ff7 remake. Oh well, can't wait to see the new faster loading time.

@Milktastrophe You can transfer ps4 game save to ps5 console with usb stick. Only ps5 save that you can't move with usb stick.

@BuGGy2DaB you need to meditate for the trophies to pop

@Robinsad cool it worked, thanks.

@Robinsad I also had to load my 100% save, the new game+ save only popped a few of them. My guess is that this is the issue most people are having.

@j2c @Vivisapprentice I've heard meditating fixes the auto pop issues for trophies, you should give that a try.

@KidBoruto yep meditating is how you pop them, it popped 37 of the 40 trophies in one hit, it just lost a few of my acquired skills which I had to farm some kills, no biggie, was about an hour playtime. Game wasn’t very well optimised though, very janky and glitchy

@Vivisapprentice Glad to hear you didn't have to waste much time!

@peppermillian Mine sadly did not pop.

@Stoffinator That’s strange! 😞 Right after I transferred the save data, I sat there waiting for all the trophy notifications to stop. There were a lot of them.
