Is it worth buying the PS5 if I already own an Xbox Series X ?

I've been contemplating about buying one for awhile now and still unsure.

My questions are

- Is it worth paying for two memberships ?
- Spending more money on the games for having two consoles ?
-Can you have like activision , EA , Epic Games connected to both Xbox and PSN Account ?

Any more advice is much appreciated , especially if you own the two consoles.

Update :
Thanks everyone for your help. I did end up buying the PS5 Slim digital console , so far I'm loving it.


Thank you

Not really. Unless you wanted to play God of War and the newest Spiderman, There's not really any reason to have both especially since most online games nowadays are Crossplay.

The only use i could see having both is using the Xbox as your primary gaming console and using the Ps5 as an expensive DVD player and to play single player games on a big TV in 4k quality.

it depends if youre a console collector like myself then yeah its worth buying a ps5,
honestly its worth to buy a ps5 period if you prefer active video games that arent dead,

if youre not like me and many other console collectors then sure up to you,
like i said its worth it if you want a more active player base,

other then that depends on what you want if you have money always coming in

if youre tight on cash then nah its not worth buying a new console if you have a current gen already.

If your currently on Xbox and can afford it then do it bro,
Yeah most games are the same but I promise there's some Sony exclusives that shouldn't be left unplayed. The last of us part one and 2,
God of war has always been great. And the new VR2 system they've added to PS5 might be kinda steep in the price, but it's just insane compared to anything Xbox has currently. Coming from a long term Xbox owner. I have both and don't regret it

Having one for VR alone I feel is worth it. But be prepared to spend roughly $550 after tax for the VR2 headset
