The PS5 is here, and with it comes a new way to capture your unforgettable in-game moments: the Create button. To celebrate, we’ve revamped Share of the Week, with a new logo and updated submission hashtag, opening our weekly series of highlights to welcome a new generation of players. Starting this week, PS5 and PS4 players can submit their best entries to Share of the Week using hashtags #PSshare #PSBlog. Before we kick things off with the latest theme, let’s take a look at how PS5 gamers can use the Create button to capture and share their best gaming moments.
Capture
At any time while playing on PS5, press the Create button on the DualSense wireless controller. Immediately, players have the option to take a screenshot or start a new video recording. Just play through an epic streak or nail that perfect move to miss the chance to capture it? Fear not, there is a third capture option which allows players to view and record anywhere between the last 15 seconds and 60 minutes of play. Never miss the bragging rights again.
From this menu, players can customize some controls such as recording resolution and screenshot format. Screenshots can be set to JPG or PNG, while video can be set to WebM (most efficient) or MP4 (most compatible), 1080p or 4K. The resolution can be set between 1920 × 1080 or 3840 × 2160. Once a clip has been recorded, it can be changed by trimming the length or selecting a cover photo. Also, be sure to check the HDR settings, as they sometimes affect the appearance of the captured content.
Share
Ready to submit to Share of the Week? Open Media Gallery to share the last captured photo or to browse and share previously saved captures. Once selected, click the share option, write a caption (don’t forget the hashtags!), And post directly to a linked Twitter or YouTube account. It’s so easy! Players can also upload creations directly from the media gallery using a USB drive to Twitter and Instagram manually.
