We all know about Virtual Private Networks or VPN. This magical tool lets you access websites, content and even video games that are region-locked or geolocked. It is easy to use VPN for PC or smartphones and takes just a few minutes to set up. But what about consoles like PlayStation 5 (PS5) or Xbox? It is a little complicated to use VPN on PS5 or to use VPN on Xbox, but it is still possible and you should definitely get it if you want to, not only play region-locked games, but also get early access to games. Additionally, if you watch Netflix on your console, you can also watch region restricted content and potentially open the entire video library to yourself. So, how to use VPN on PS5 and Xbox?

This diminishes latency, gives you less lag and reduces ping time for you. As a result, you can not only play online games better, but react faster to situations, giving you an advantage over rivals.
