10 Features The PS5 Desperately Needs

6. Folders & Themes

In a baffling move, the PS5 has launched with neither folders nor themes, two features that were present and widely-used on the PS4.

Folders of course allow players to organise their games and apps however they see fit and ensure they can sift through potentially hundreds of titles as efficiently as possible. Yet for reasons unknown, this hilariously basic feature isn't yet available for PS5.

Themes were also a great feature on the PS4, allowing players to customise their home screen in the style of their favourite game of the moment.

While in this respect you can at least argue that Sony wants players to first get to grips with the base PS5 theme before changing things up, it's still a much-loved feature which really should've been ready for launch.

It's incredibly likely these features are both coming in the near-future, but the wait has already been too long, honestly.
