Hey guys. New to this forum but this is the only place I thought could help. Went onto my ps4 today after a short hiatus, go to find that my dbd game had been completely deleted and I have to re-buy it. This is a real bummer as I've been playing for years now and had no problems...my only issue is that I dont really want to spend another £13 on a game that ive already spent money on previous DLC's to find that the games been completely deleted, and I have to rebuy the game AND the DLC's, anyone know why this has happened and how I can resolve it without buying it all again? I know I haven't deleted it and it seems all my data is still there, just not the game. If it results in having to buy the game again i guess i dont have a choice, but it's a bit of a inconvenience considering I've spent maybe £25+ on the game already. Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)

    If you got it from the PS store just re download it again if it's a disc just pop it back in and do the same.

    Will I have to re-purchase it or will it just download again? I'm trying to avoid re-purchasing 😔 thanks

    I never had this problem, but

    If you already bought the game you don't have to buy it again just re-download it

    It might be gone because your PS+ ran out if you got it from your subscriptionysubscription you have to renew your subscription, if you bought it with your money then you can redownload it .

    If you purchased it, you should be able to go over to your library and click on all games, and it should be there. Click it, and re-download. If you got it free from ps+ and your account isn't active, then you can't play it until you re-activate it.

    Basically, if you purchased it through PS+ than it could've ran out WITH your subscription. Unfortunately, that's how PSN works with their PS+ exclusive games, they last as long as your subscription does (I believe).

    If you just bought it on it's own without PS+ being involved, than you can re-download the game without any issues. Your Save Data will also not be lost, since that's tied to your PSN and stored on a cloud data system.
