Whether this feature will be available from launch day, however, is still up in the air. Now an official partner, you'll not only be able to watch other gamers on Twitch through your PS4, but livestream using the service, too. We heard that The Playroom, a tech demo-slash-introduction to the console and peripherals, will come pre-installed on every unit, and that you'll be able to pump tunes from Music Unlimited while gaming, as well as access quick controls via the PS Home button. By the way, every console purchase will come with two weeks of free PS Plus subscription (you'll need that for online play), and 90 days come free if you buy a year's worth of access.Īside from the hardware, Sony's also released details around the PS4's software and services. North Americans may get the console before any other region, but red and blue variants of the DualShock 4 controller will launch first in Europe alongside the PS4, before arriving elsewhere later in the year.
The next-gen console is headed to North America first on November 15th for 399 of your finest US or Canadian dollars, followed by a slew of European (for €399 or £349) and Latin American countries, as well as Australia, at the slightly later date of November 29th. Most importantly, we now have firm release dates. Let's start with the man of the hour, the PS4. Now, chances are they'll be more Sony tidbits appearing as the German gaming event runs its course, but for now we've collected, compiled and condensed everything we've learned in one handy place: right after the break.
After all, there's a whole lot to digest. Miss our liveblog of Sony's Gamescom press conference yesterday, or the wealth of news we've covered on all things PlayStation? Well, we forgive you.
