JAKARTA - When playing games, there must be several moments that you want to preserve, either by taking screenshots, or taking video recordings of games (screen records).

Fortunately, Sony already has a feature that allows players to do both things on PlayStation 5. So, you can take screenshots and screenshots easily and quickly.

Launching from various sources, PS5 itself has a feature in its DualSense controller called Create. The button, which is on the left side of the touchpad and above the D-pad, functions as a home for your gameplay.

The button is the evolution of the Share button on the PS4 controller, which has a similar function to record gameplay PS4.

By default, pressing the Create PS5 button will do several things, including as follows:

Well, when you already know the default function of the Create button, taking captures and video recordings from your game using the Create button shortcut is very easy.

You just need to press the Create button and hold it for a few seconds, after which you will see the icon appear at the top right of the screen to show that the screenshot is successfully retrieved.

Then, to record videos on PS5, you also use the Create button shortcut to record videos with the length you selected in the settings.

But, in addition to this manual option, the PS5 can automatically capture screenshots and short video clips every time you get a PlayStation trophy.

For information, the Create menu has a shortcut at the bottom for some general actions. In the middle, you will find Take Screenshots and Save Recent Gameplay.

There is also Start New Recording which starts recording videos when you select them. This is useful if you plan to record a little gameplay from scratch instead of recording something after unexpected facts.
