How does the Next-Gen Upgrade work? If I buy this physical disk for PS4, do I get to download a digital copy for PS5? I ask because I most likely won't get the PS5 with the disc reader. Thanks! null

If you don't get the disc version of the PS5, then you would most likely not be able to play this version. Usually what happens is there is a small download of additional content that allows the game to be processed at a higher FPS and with next gen textures. It's just an add on to the content that is downloaded from the disc. Wait a few days and see what the digital copy on Playstation Network goes for as they usually have a sale. If you get the digital copy on PS4, it will carry over to the 5 as well. Hope that helps!

The PS5 runs PS4 games based on the original purchase. Since you bought physical PS4 games, you would only be able to play them on the PS5 if you bought the Disc Version.

No, you can't do that with the Last of Us Part 2.
