In looking over all the best PS5 games released, there’s no shortage of great single and multiplayer experiences to enjoy. Thanks to a built-in friends list, chatting and joining parties with friends has never been easier, especially now that you can use Discord on PS5. On the other hand, sometimes you just want to play solo without anyone bothering you with messages or invites. Or, you may be playing a guilty pleasure and would rather no one else know what you’re up to. Whatever the reason, the solution is to appear offline on PS5 so you can play in peace.
