    AFAIK you can’t delete anything from your PSN library. You can only delete installed titles from your devices.

    Hiding stuff, like folders is currently only available on PS4. I'm sure they will add these features to PS5 eventually. It took Sony 3 years to add folders as an option on the PS4.

    Sorry, I hadn't read the thread title properly so I've been talking about hiding the icons on a PS4, not on a PS5. Apologies.

    Oh right, I was looking to tidying it up a bit, and just have the new stuff on there, was no option to add certain games to folders either, hope they add these options, thanks for the quick reply..

    You can definitely hide them, I did this the other day on mine. If you go to the library, go to a game and then press the option button You should be able to hide the icon from your library IIRC.

    Edit - Just remembered how to do it, go to Library, then down Purchased (with the little PS Store symbol), go to the game or app you want to hide and then press Options and select Do Not Show Content Item.
