Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin, ensure your PlayStation system is updated to the latest firmware to ensure optimal compatibility with the disc. Insert the Blu-ray disc into your console drive; the game will automatically initiate an installation of necessary data files. For the best experience, use a controller with responsive sticks to handle the game's deliberate movement style. To care for your physical media, keep the disc in its case when not in use, store it away from direct sunlight, and only clean it with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth moving from the center of the disc to the outer edge.
