Pretty much everyone hates being spoiled about a game they're currently playing or are planning to play in the near future, and it's enough of a problem in today's Very Online world that the PS5 actually has an in-built feature to combat it.

In the PS5's Save Data and Game/App Settings menu, you'll find a Spoiler Warning heading, where you're able to toggle a warning for any media - such as images or videos posted by friends - from sections in games you haven't played yet.

Better still, for added security you can even set the PS5 to warn about media from specific sections of a game that the developer themselves has flagged as particularly spoilerific.

This is a fantastic feature to ensure your feed isn't clogged up with videos of all the coolest moments from the latest games being played by your pals with more free time on their hands.

There's certainly a wider discussion to be had about contemporary spoiler culture, but for the time being, this is a great way to keep your PS5 insulated from pesky spoilers.
