Crash Bandicoot 4 is one of the games that is leading to some users facing issues when it comes to upgrading from the PS4 to the PS5.
Crash Bandicoot subreddit was full of complaints from users who had purchased the PS4 version but they weren’t able to upgrade to the PS5 version. When they picked the choice to upgrade to the PS5, they would be presented with a purchase error that talked about a “Tracker” version.

As far as we can gather, this error is mainly occurring for those who had pre-ordered the PS4 version of the game and are now trying to upgrade to the PS5 version. In this case, the PlayStation Store throws away a Tracker error and is unable to complete the upgrade.
While the issue is still on-going, Ask PlayStation has acknowledged the problem and has issued a statement on Twitter suggesting that they are looking into it. At best, this should be resolved soon. Activision is also investigating this issue. At the moment, this appears to be a problem for digital owners of the game only.
