Restarting your PS5 is a simple process that can often fix minor issues like a frozen screen, a laggy interface, or connection problems. The best method is to use your controller, as it allows the system to perform a proper shutdown before restarting.

Method 1: Using the DualSense Controller (Best Method)
This is the recommended way to restart your PS5, as it ensures all processes are closed correctly.

Press the PlayStation (PS) button on your controller. This brings up the Control Center at the bottom of the screen.


Scroll all the way to the right and select the Power icon (it looks like a circle with a line through the top).

A new menu will appear. Select Restart PS5.

The console will then begin its shutdown process and automatically restart. The light bar on the console will turn off, then briefly flash blue before turning back on as a solid white light.

Method 2: Using the Physical Power Button
If your PS5's screen is frozen and you can't use your controller, you can perform a forced shutdown from the console itself.

Locate the power button on the front of your PS5 console.

Disc Edition: The power button is the bottom, thin, pill-shaped button on the glossy black front of the console.

Digital Edition: The power button is the only physical button on the glossy black front.

Press and hold the power button for a few seconds.

You will hear one beep, and after a few more seconds, you'll hear a second beep. Release the button after the second beep.

The PS5 will then turn off completely. To restart it, press the power button once.
