How to Access the Hidden PS5 Web Browser

PlayStation 5 is the latest gaming console from the Sony Network. Unlike PlayStation 4, PS5 doesn’t have browser support to load the web pages. However, it has a secret browser that you can use to load the basic web pages. On the other hand, you need a Twitter account for browsing. You can’t also enter the link as there is no address bar. In simple words, it is a browser that you can use to visit the links embedded on the Tweet. However, you can’t use it to play videos from streaming sites like Netflix or Hulu.
