I recently visited a friend’s house and played The Last of Us (TLOU) on my account using his PS5. Now that I’m back home with my own PS5, all my game progress seems to be lost. What should I do to recover it?

If it’s just the progress in TLOU that’s missing, make sure you had your save synced with the cloud using your friend’s PS5. Otherwise, you might not be able to retrieve it easily.
You might need to restore your license and make your PS5 the primary console for your account. That should help with accessing your games and progress.
I restored the license, but I’m not sure how to set my PS5 as the primary console. Any tips?
It sounds like your friend may have set their PS5 as the primary console for your account, which could have affected your access to the game progress. It might be a good idea to check in with your friend first to clarify.
Actually, I only lost the progress in TLOU, not my overall account progress.
Just wondering, why did you think you could access your game save from any console? Usually, it’s tied to the specific system unless you upload it to the cloud.
I assumed since it’s my account, it would save my progress regardless of where I played.
Do I need a PS Plus subscription for that?
