Looks like it. I agree with the yt comment. They just wanted to get it out so the rumors don't take control.

Looks like some games may not work via the warning at the end.

That's kind of expected, even without weird peripherals.

Every time a console offers platform level BC there are a few games that uses some undocumented trick to run on the original hardware and end up having trouble on the new hardware.

This is how Sony presents the situation, stating that 4000+ ps4 titles will work on ps5 and then naming the few that don't:

IIRC the list was a little bit longer at first but some devs patched their titles to fix compatibility.

That’s probably due to the new controllers. Can’t fit them into the Starlink holder or the Ring Fit anymore.
