When the PS5 console launches in November,
PS5 users will be able to chat with PS4 users — which is why we needed to include an advisory with the latest PS4 system update.
Once the PS5 console launches, if a PS5 player needs to file a harassment report, they will be able to include up to a 40 second-long Voice Chat clip in their report — 20 seconds of the main conversation with the other player, plus an additional 10 seconds before and after the conversation selection.
Only the most recent five minutes of a Voice Chat will be available for a player to use for this reporting function.
There wont be an option to opt-out of this Voice Chat recording function because we want all users to feel safe when playing with others online, not just those who choose to enable it.
