Now, informant billbil-kun has confirmed that the symbol is indeed present in the PS5 code. It is hidden from users and is only visible through test settings or viewing the PlayStation Store code. In the "About Us" section on PS5, you can activate the display of the "PS5/PC Cross-Buy" icon.
Analysts at Dealabs discovered a "crossbuy-tag" tag in the PlayStation Store CSS, responsible for the symbol's design. According to the server, the style was added in June 2025, indicating months of Sony's preparation for launching the function.
Cross-Buy previously existed on PS3, PS4, and PS Vita, allowing a single purchase to be played on multiple devices. This time, it seems Sony is preparing a system between PS5 and PC, similar to Xbox Play Anywhere.
The company has not yet confirmed the innovation, but many players believe that this may be a step towards integrating the PS5 with the new portable console, which has been rumored for several months.
