After you set up your PS5, you should add your friends to make queuing up easier. You may even find gamer friends in past matches.
When the player accepts the request, they’ll be added to your friend list. If you want to share your real name and profile picture associated with your PlayStation account, check the box next to Become Close Friends.
The player will still be able to interact with you in games. If you don’t want this, select “•••” again, then Block. You also choose to appear offline if you don’t want anyone knowing your activity status.
If you select a friend, you’ll be able to see their profile with the games they play, trophies they’ve obtained, and more. Be sure to turn off your PS5 or put it in rest mode when it’s not in use.
If other users are having trouble adding you, you may need to adjust your PlayStation privacy settings.
You may also want to set Who can interact with you through parties, games, and messages as Anyone.
