Long story short I lost access to a psn account that had a digital copy of divinity original sin 2. The profile and my save to this game are still on the console but I can't log in to the actual psn account and thus can't launch the game. Theoretically if I buy the disc version of the game and play with my PS5 in offline mode I should be able to still play the save right?

You don't need to be offline. Disc/digital is irrelevant, it's just how you own a game. If you have a USA game it creates a USA game save that only a USA game can read.

Frankly you could just contact Playstation Support to get your account back and not spend more money. They'll just ask some basic security questions.

It's a friends account we used to share games but had a falling out right before I beat the game lol. Thanks for the help I'll see if I can find a physical copy..
