P.T. Was Playable On PS5 But Was Removed By Publisher

The incredible P.T. demo for the canceled Hideo Kojima Silent Hills title still has a massive audience even after it was pulled from the PlayStation Store. Those hoping to play the demo on PS5 will be disappointed to hear you cannot.

According to Polygon:

P.T. was the first PS4 title I tested through backward compatibility on PS5. On Oct. 24, I transferred my copy of P.T. to and played the game on my PS5, picking up from a recent save that carried over from PS4. Then I restarted P.T. from the beginning, and played through a bit more. It seemed to work fine. In fact, the 4K screenshot at the top of this post was captured from the PS5 review unit that Sony sent me.

But in the days leading up to Sony’s PS5 review embargo, the situation changed. P.T. is now listed as a “Playable on PS4” title, meaning it can’t be played on PS5.

According to Sony, this was a "publisher decision" which is strange. Why bury a demo people still love playing? Especially when it was playable.
