StaceyPowers Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 So, for some stupid reason, it is impossible to delete individual saves on PS5 via the PS5 menus. But I did discover a workaround I wanted to share. If you go into the game you want to delete the saves for, you can just start saving over the old saves in many cases. It is not an ideal solution, but it does delete them and help you conserve space. This is very helpful if you are playing a game like Skyrim where you are going to end up with a ton of saves.

Heatman Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I'm going to keep this very close to heart because it's going to be very useful whenever I eventually get to own a Playstation 5 which have eluded me for long now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Overriding them is an option, which cover up previous saves and deleting it temporarily instead of saving it different, which accumulates space, I got your point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to sharing this with a friend of mine who's got Playstation 5 already, as I believe it's going to be very helpful to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Just override them I say and not worry about removing them 🙂 I mean it still have space left to save more and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's very correct, having them overridden is definitely going to do this work without much stress. Why didn't I think about that initially 😂?

Would doing that override really work in this situation? If yes, then it solves the problem a lot more easier I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think system override does that kind of thing to most issues and not just for gaming systems issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago Thanks for sharing that workaround! It's frustrating not being able to delete individual saves directly. Overwriting works well, especially in Skyrim! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
