I’m thinking about replaying the original Spider-Man game, but my disc is way too scratched up. It only gets to 8% during installation before giving me an error. If I buy the PS5 upgrade, will I be able to download the game even though the disc doesn’t work properly? Sorry if this is a silly question, but I just want to know if the upgrade will help in this situation.

There’s a chance you won’t be able to download it if the disc is too damaged. Some users said they got a download option after putting the disc in, but others couldn’t get past the check. Might be a bit of a gamble!
Honestly, if the disc is that scratched, you might just hit a wall. It could work, but if the system can’t read it properly, you’re out of luck!
As long as your disc is still readable enough for the console to verify it, you should be good to go! The upgrade might let you download the game even if the disc won’t install completely. But it depends on whether the system recognizes it. If the PS5 can confirm it’s the right game, then the upgrade should work!
Yeah, I was able to download it even when my disc was a little dodgy as long as it recognized it as the game.
