How Much Will Sony's PlayStation 5 Cost? More Than You Hope | Digital Trends

Sony claims to have begun testing the ability to stream PS5 games via the cloud. The game maker claims to be testing cloud streaming for PS5 games and intends to include this as a feature of its PlayStation Plus Premium membership.

According to Nick Maguire, VP of global services, global sales, and business operations at Sony Interactive Entertainment, “We’re currentlyPS5 games testing cloud streaming for supported PS5 games – this includes PS5 titles from the PlayStation Plus Game Catalogue and Game Trials, as well as supported digital PS5 titles that players own.” Maguire added that “When this feature launches, cloud game streaming for supported PS5 titles will be available for use directly on your PS5 console.”

The PS5’s cloud ability would eliminate the need to download games to your console in order to broadcast them to other devices. To download and stream PS5 games to your other devices, you must use your PS5 as the host. Sony presently supports streaming PS5 games to PCs, Macs, iOS, and Android smartphones.

Sony’s efforts to develop cloud streaming for PS5 games have long looked obvious. A new push toward online gaming was suggested by recent job advertisements, while PlayStation CEO Jim Ryan promised “quite aggressive plans” for cloud gaming last month. However, Sony only acknowledged Wi-Fi streaming of PS5 games played straight from a console before going on to announce its PlayStation portable, codenamed Project Q.

Despite the fact that Sony hasn’t yet specified if its PlayStation handheld would support PS5 cloud game streaming, this PlayStation Plus Premium cloud push is unmistakably a step in that direction. The company is still in the early stages of cloud gaming, according to a suggestion made earlier this month by Sony’s CEO, Kenichiro Yoshida, so possibly Project Q will still debut (in November?) without this crucial support.

More than four years after announcing an unexpected partnership with Microsoft, Sony has confirmed PS5 cloud streaming. This relationship would have seen the two companies work together to develop future cloud solutions for game and content-streaming services. Since 2019, we haven’t heard much regarding this deal. In spite of an initial commitment from the gaming rivals to investigate the usage of Microsoft Azure datacentre-based solutions for Sony’s game and content-streaming services, PlayStation CEO Jim Ryan stated in 2021 that Sony was still at the “exchanging ideas” stage. The strategic cooperation between Microsoft and Sony may have ended given that AWS has recently been mentioned in job listings by Sony.
