GibsonIV Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Seems a shame to me but looks like it’s confirmed after playing it on PS4 I was excited but not sure I can justify a full price tag to play it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't out yet, so maybe an upgrade path becomes available once the game releases? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turniplord Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 The PS5 version came out in Japan yesterday, it had an upgrade option (not free). Will probably be the same when it launches over here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewDust Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 It finally launched outside of Japan, but I'm not seeing an upgrade option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is, when you search for the game on a PS5 you get an £8.99 upgrade option - it contains the game, Llama of wolf street, El Prez pack and a soundtrack. I have the digital copy - if you have a physical and can't see the upgrade, it may not be live yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewDust Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Don't have a disc (or any version) to try out. Usually it at least surfaces upgrade possibilities in the store, so this might be a hidden one where ot only shows if you actually own the game. I intend to pickup a PS4 copy, if it is confirmed the disc version also has an upgrade path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After playing 5 hours of the PS5 version, it's not that different tbh. I'm gonna email the PR to check out a few questions I have about it, but so far it's pretty much just a 4k version of the same game with the additional DLC and soundtrack. You can bump the number of people living in your city to 10k though - I'm not sure if you could on the ps4 version. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turniplord Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Update - the digital version doesn't come with the soundtrack. The publisher accidentally stated it was included but it's only with the physical version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poetic_justice_ Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) The NA PSN store does have a PS5 upgrade for the PS4 disc. It costs $9.99 dollars US. I'm only seeing it offered once my disc is loaded into a PS5 console, though. The second question I had was whether PS5 trophies auto-pop. After looking at trophy profiles of players who have both versions, it appears this is not the case. The final question is whether you can import PS4 saves into the PS5 version. This would save hours. I didn't enjoy Tropico 6 nearly as much as Tropico 5, and don't intend to replay fifteen missions from scratch if PS4 saves cannot be imported. 4K resolution on a tedious game is smoke and mirrors.

Do you have any information about if you purchase the upgraded PS5 version for $9.99 with the PS4 disc that it requires the disc to be present every time to load the PS5 version of the game? AKA, can I sell my disc afterward and have the PS5 for good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Limbic Entertainment's past actions, this lack of gamer-friendly service is not surprising. EDIT: After playing the game on PS5, there is 0% autopop. All trophies must be earned a second time on PS5.

Otherwise, multiple players could exchange one PS4 disc between multiple PS5s, only paying $10 for a full PS5 game on each player's profile. Kalypso Media and Limbic Entertainment could potentially lose thousands of dollars due to digital theft.

If it auto popped then there would be no hesitation in buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the whole game must be played a second time if anyone wants the second platinum on PS5. No shortcuts are available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
