Benefits of Using a Proxy with PS4 and PS5

If you want to play online games on your PS4 or PS5, you’ll need a proxy sooner or later. A good proxy server will make your gaming experience smoother without worrying about geo-restrictions. Advantages of using a proxy with PS4 and PS5 include:

Playing Geo-Restricted Games

Some online games are blocked in certain countries or regions. While millions of gamers cannot access and play these games just because of their geographical location, players from other countries don’t have this problem.

If you’re in a location that’s not supported by the game servers, but you still want to play a specific game, you can use a reliable proxy server. The proxy will provide you with an IP address from a location where the game is available, thus making it look like you’re reaching from a supported location.

Reducing Lag

Speed is of absolute importance when it comes to online gaming. In most online games, it can turn pure fun to pure frustration. If you often deal with network lags, using a fast proxy can be quite handy.

The proxy server will allow you to choose an IP address from a region close to the game server’s location. Requests you’ll send to the game will go through fewer nodes before reaching the final destination. As a result, latency and ping will be reduced to a point where you’ll experience minimum lag.

Accessing Blocked Games

While you may be denied access to a particular game because of your geographical location, some games can deny you access due to crowded servers or connectivity issues.

Also, school and workplace networks may block access to certain gaming-related IPs to prevent you from playing PS4 and PS5 games even when you’re on your well-deserved break.

Luckily, a proxy server can help you solve all these issues by replacing your IP address with a new one.

Useful Information About Proxies for PS4 and PS5

Why Use Proxies for PS4 and PS5

A reliable proxy can help you access geo-restricted games for your PSN by connecting from locations where the content is available.

Also, it can reduce lag to some extent if the setup is right: for example, connecting to servers that are closer to PSN data centers.

What Is a Proxy Server?

A proxy server is a system (device) on the internet with a unique IP address and location that your console uses as its own. So, when sending your requests to websites or servers, the proxy takes them first so it can process them before they reach the final destination.

Also, the proxy gets the responses from these websites and servers before it sends them back to your gaming console. This is how website servers think your requests are coming from another user using another device from another location.

Your true IP address and location stay hidden the whole time, allowing you to browse anonymously. It provides you with better online privacy and security.

Best Proxies for PS4 and PS5

You can use datacenter or residential proxies for your PS4 or PS5. Which type of proxy you’ll use depends on what you plan to do with it.

If you want to unblock geo-restricted games or services, choose residential proxies as they are the most anonymous and secure option.

If you’re looking for maximum speed and lowest latency datacenter proxies could be the better choice.

The key to choosing the best proxy, whether residential or datacenter one, is to get it from a provider you can trust. IPRoyal is a reliable proxy source with years of experience and countless satisfied clients. We offer highly secure residential proxies and fast datacenter proxies for your gaming needs.

What's the Best Proxy Port for PSN?

For PlayStation Network (PSN), the most common proxy port is 8080. It’s a standard port used by many proxy services and is often left open on home networks.

While it works well to connect through a proxy, PSN itself relies on additional ports like TCP 80, 443, 3478–3480 and UDP 3478–3479. To avoid connection issues, make sure your proxy or network setup allows traffic on those as well.

When it comes to proxy types, residential and datacenter proxies are your best options. Residential proxies are better if you're trying to avoid blocks or bans. Datacenter proxies are cheaper and faster but might not always work with every PSN service.

Don’t go with a free one, regardless of type as you don't want to get stuck with a shared proxy that someone else has already abused.

To choose a good proxy, look for a trustworthy provider that offers:

Low ping and fast speeds
Secure and reliable connections
Customer support that responds fast

Or, you can choose IPRoyal and we’ll take care of all your PSN proxy needs.
