Playstation 5 Cmos Battery Issues Have Been Completely Fixed With One Exception

The PlayStation 5 CMOS battery issues that prevented a console from launching select physical games and all digital titles have been fixed, with only one exception.

A new video shared on YouTube by Hikikomori Media confirms that a PlayStation 5 console can now run every PS5 and PS4 game even with a missing CMOS battery, with the exception of PlayStation Plus games, which still do not work.

This is a continuation of my investigation into the CBOMB DRM found within PlayStation Consoles.

The PlayStation consoles’ CMOS battery issues came to light earlier this year when it was revealed that they would not run games with a dead battery. The issue was particularly significant for the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition for obvious reasons, so it’s nice to hear that Sony took care of the problem.  With the issue fixed on both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, the PlayStation 3 console is the only one that still suffers from these issues
