The PS5 already offers a form of backwards compatibility that means that the vast majority of PS4 titles can be played on the console. In fact, many of them can take advantage of a feature known as Game Boost, which uses the extra power available in the console to enhance older games with higher frame rates and faster loading times.
Unfortunately, the same isn’t true for classic PlayStation titles from the PS3 and PS2 era. These games are simply not able to be downloaded or played on the console via a disc, unlike PS4 releases. Of course, many older games can also be played on the PS5 via the PlayStation Plus service, although this is a cloud-based service that requires an internet connection and only allows games to be streamed rather than downloaded.
The next PlayStation could attempt to offer a more comprehensive form of backwards compatibility, possibly even allowing gamers to play their older games directly on the system via emulators. At the very least, it should offer the option to download games rather than relying solely on streaming, making the PS6 a console where the entire library of PlayStation games can be enjoyed in one place.
