True story: I sold my PS4 last year. First I backed up my saves to a USB drive, then I deactivated my PSN account and restored it to factory settings. It sold like hotcakes!

First, make sure to back up your data! Use an external drive or upload everything to the cloud. Then, perform a factory reset to wipe your personal info. Lastly, give it a good clean so it looks as fresh as possible.

Don鈥檛 forget to deactivate your PSN account from the console. Then, factory reset it to make sure all your data is gone. Trust me, no one wants your saved game of 'The Last of Us.'
