The PS5 has just celebrated its fifth anniversary, having launched back in November 2020.
We don't think anyone would argue that this console generation got off to a flying start — the global pandemic all but annihilated any concrete plans Sony had in place — but it has been a very interesting period for PlayStation and the wider gaming industry.
So, for this special edition Push Square quiz, we're going to test your knowledge on the last five years of Sony's business and the console sat at the heart of it. Just how well do you know the PS5?
We've got 15 multiple choice questions for you to answer, complete with leaderboard rankings at the end.
Good luck, and we'll see you on the other side!

Three of them I was trying to decide between two options and picked the wrong one each time.
I did terribly 😂 Sammy cheated, my source: trust me bro
8/16. No luck on my guesses either. Not great.
I’m in the top ten on the leaderboard for the first time on one of these….NOONE ELSE DO THIS QUIZ!
Misread question one 😢
How the hell was I supposed to know the weight of launch consoles though 😂
5/15 lol.
I’m just here to play games. The business side of it I couldn’t care less about.
10/15, not too bad! Some tricky questions towards the end there!
Lol @ my time though, an extra two mins cuz I had to step away to make sure dinner wasn't burning mid quiz! 😂
(spoiler, dinner is cooking up nicely!).
8/15, nightmare.
12/15
As of the time of the writing of this comment, I have the highest score on here… of anyone that isn’t employed by Hookshot! Dreams can come true! I read the articles and remember things!
Well, there were a few I second guessed myself on and conned myself out of a correct answer, but 7 isn't too bad I guess. 😅
5/15
I guess I do not know the PS5 history that well.
Almost perfect score. I thought Baldur's Gate 3 had the highest score on Metacritic.
Love the quizzes! Feels like it’s been a long time since we had one. 12/15 on this one. Not bad!
Ouch, two of them were a fluke.
5/15 pathetic!
11/15, i ranked 155th
10/15 for me which I am pleased with
That was embarrassing 7/15.....
8/15, that's quite good for me.
8, thought I done right sh*t but feeling better about myself reading these comments ☺️
10/15, I'll take it!
I got 13/15.
I'm surprised I did that well too.
12/15. This has been the easiest for me so far.
12/15 and I'm pretty annoyed at myself for two of them. Had to guess the Astro question as i haven't played it yet (I will, I will). Luckily i guessed right.
13/15, both of the ones I got wrong I was debating between two choices and picked the wrong one.
Astro Bot had 76 levels? It’s hard to believe, given it had only 6 worlds. Definitely a banger of a game, that’s for sure!
@Zuljaras Were any of your 5 a guess?
10/15, not too bad =] fun questions though some a little obvious I thought!
14 out of 15.i only got 1 wrong. Word up son
I do love these never any good but love the whole idea of them.
11/15, 311th. Not too shabby.
I got the Concord question right without even thinking. Because I pre-ordered it 🫠🫠🫠
I don't even have a PS5 and I got 11/15. Just goes to show how much time I spend online.
Got 12/15, and one of the three I got wrong was a bit of a tricky question (I mean, who’s going to be looking at the number of reviews a game has on Metacritic, let alone take that into consideration) so not bad all things considered.
11/15.
Highest rated metacritic game isn't fair since both elden ring and Baldurs Gate 3 have the same rating
12/15
Needs more Quiz. Maybe next topic should be how much you know about Wild Arms, GT, or one of Sony franchise...
Why would knowing the weight of a launch PS3 be required for knowing the PS5 well? What a dumb question.
I got 13 out of 15, nice. The only ones I did get wrong was where in what region the PS5 was released 1 week after and if the launch PS5 is heavier than launch PS3.
@PuppetMaster Making quizzes, about PlayStation games that Sony doesn't do anything anymore would be nice.
@Vyse_the_Legend Yeah something like Vib-Ribbon, Jumping Flash, Arc the Lad, or Legaia.
@PuppetMaster Or Alundra, Gravity Rush, Legend of Dragoon, Ape Escape.
It was all going so well, then I flubbed the ending. Lol.
Stabbed wildly at the first answers that came into my head and still got 8, which Im perfectly happy with!
If you get 15 you need to get out and touch grass! (Not really, congrats).
@GirlVersusGame 1 or 2
9/15 isn't bad, considering I've never owned a PS5 or even played on one 👀
I'm still so butthurtabout about God of War getting best Ost at tga over xenoblade 3 that I fatfingered the GOTY question 💀
😂
Stopped answering after question 9: At the time of writing, which game has the highest overall critic score of any PS5 title on Metacritic?
Picked Baldur's Gate 3. Found out it's an incorrect answer, despite the info text confirming it's not incorrect "Baldur's Gate 3 actually has the same score".
Poor.
Really doubt question 9, at the metacritic randing, BG3 is 21, ER is 26, I don't trust another explanation
Yeah, Question 9 is a bad question.
You can't ask for specifically which one scored higher, have two options that scored the same, and then tell the player you picked the wrong correct answer because what we actually asked was highest rated game with the highest number of reviews.
Three out of fifteen which is three more than I thought I was gonna get.
1.Couldn't remember, assumed Japan or Europe, didn't remember Australia getting it later. Redid my answer but did Japan at first then then went eh I'll login in and restart my answer. I'll say 0 here.
2.Is it even surprising. XD Remakes or otherwise there is a reason them and Obsidian are the ones doing well this gen. I don't care for their games but their release output has been good. 1
3.Can we really forget, of course we pay attention to leadership these days. 2
4.I do remember that change, was a weird change but so much of Dualshock 4 was, then again what features did it offer touchpad, better vibration (I only know that Azure Guvnolt and Clannad used so go figure there of vibrration scaling in niche games besides the more of a triggers/feedback change compared to HD Rumble which isn't that good and Impulse triggers of Xbox 2013+ which are good). 3
5.A fair mix of letters but memorable. 4
6.Oh right yeah that one. I forgot with some upgrades, or overlooked it for the other one. So many get upgrades at this point eh. Like i care, I don't really care for any of those games really. DMC5 was ok, the others were, 'there'. 4
7.You really think I"m not going to remember that, the like Media Molcule last remaining creative studio. I have disowned the others at this point, even Sackboy/Ratchet/GT, GT7 is ok but the others I'm just so disappointed with. I pay attention to studio names as well as publishers, I collect and look them up constantly. 5
8.Pure guess it seemed high enough so went eh why not, I don't remember, I never played it, I didn't care for the game. 6
9.Guessed wrong but I don't care for any of these or metacritic scores. I should have gone the particular one but i went eh, critics versus players and I also don't care what it scored/what community it's part of or game design. So eh. 6
10.If wasn't for how particular it was compared to past years yeah I wouldn't have known. 7
11.I assumed same year as the console then went nah they did it earlier. Honestly to me I barely pay attention to the change as I play old games and barely see the logo, so like i really care. 7
12.Yes we all remember it being that short. 8
13.It was talked up a lot but it was on Xbox later not PS5/PC and otherwise it seemed the most likely. 9
14.Assumed it was middle or a particular number in my head and went that sounds about right, not that low or not that high. 10
15.What person cares about how much it weighs versus how it looks big. Not surprised I guessed wrong. I don't care, it would feel about the same when carrying and the stupid stand and otherwise would make it awkward anyway, vertical or horizontal. 10 is my final score.
So particular stuff, details i don't care about, or forgot.
A fair mix of questions, I do like the weight question it is a very interesting angled one, the rest are pretty fair if you paid attention to articles, details Sony put out or just follow the business side general though.
So much for a console I barely touched/had access to, don't have my own and don't want one, and like researching consoles before buying them, know everything about them (or enough about them and may miss some details or skip over details I don't care about such as acclaimed games and other nonsense when I care about what I care about of particular 3rd parties or other 1st party on a console instead, before having one, like N64 for example, only care about the 3rd parties, then having one feels weird then get used to it).
I'll take 10/15, that's good compared to usual!
