I have two PS4 in separate rooms and use either one depending on who in the family is home. If I order the digital version will i be able to play it on both systems?

Re: digital version question
Most certainly should. Game is connected to PSN account not physical system. Don't believe u can be signed into both at same time though.

Re: digital version question
What Benz said is correct. You just give to install on both consoles.

Re: digital version question
You can and it can be played on both systems simultaneously.
To play on both at once, you (as the owner of the game) need to be signed in and playing on your non-primary PS4 while anybody else can be signed into your primary machine and play your games.Comment

Re: digital version question
Bear with me...old guy, kinda slow on the uptake...
So, I bought the G.O.A.T. edition on PS4. It is already downloaded to my primary PS4 and will unlock tonight. Are you saying that I could allow my son to access this copy on his separate PS4 in the house? How do I get it downloaded to his PS4 without rebuying? Can I log into my PS4 account on his system and then just download the game? Can we then play AGAINST each other using the same copy of the game running on 2 separate systems?
Sorry for all the questions...just doesn't seem like something Sony would allow you to do...
Thanks!Comment

Re: digital version question
Yes to all of your questions. If you have your account on your son's PS4 under a 2nd user and mark it as primary then he could log into his user and play any games you download on your PS4 because it is considered the primary account. Been a lot of back and forth whether its legal or not but it works nonetheless.

Re: digital version question
Fellow old guy here myself so I'm happy to help.
You'll have to log in with your account on the other PS4 and download the game to that PS4. That's the simple part. What you'll then need to do is setup whichever PS4 he'd be playing on as your primary PS4. You'll be able to play the game on either system and he'll be able to play on the one you setup as your primary.
You can absolutely play against each other between the two systems. I do it with my son all the time. We play in an online CFM together and even choose the same division so we can get multiple in-house matchups a year.Comment

Re: digital version question
I'm pretty sure it's legal and an intentional feature included by Sony. I only found out about it because I was looking for something related on their forums and found a response describing exactly how to do it. I believe it was an official response from Sony but either way, it was on their site and they didn't seem to be bothered by it being posted there.Comment

Re: digital version question
Thanks to the responders!
I will likely look into it a bit more with Sony before I try it out. Appreciate the feedback! Thanks a bunch...Comment

Re: digital version question
Your situation of having two systems in the same house with different family member owners is literally the reason game sharing was created for digital content.
People using game sharing for friends outside of the household is the "questionable" part.
