Leveraging Gaikai’s advanced cloud-based technology, PlayStation Now will allow you to:

– Play video games instantly across multiple devices, similar to the way you might stream TV, movies, and music.

– Stream full games to all of your compatible PlayStation devices including PS4, PS3, and PlayStation Vita as well as non-PlayStation devices, beginning with 2014 BRAVIA TV models and expanding to numerous other Internet-connected devices.

– Always play the most updated version of your game. With games hosted in the cloud, you can take your game with you – just log in with your Sony Entertainment Network account on a compatible device and your games and saved progress will be easily available.

The new PlayStation Now streaming games service will be arriving first on PS4 and PS3 systems, followed by PS Vita. For more information on the new PlayStation Now service and to sign-up for updates jump over to the Sony PS Now website for details.
