PS4 Remote Play Comes to Mac & PC Tomorrow

PS4 Remote Play

At long last, after having last reported on it in November, PS4 Remote Play is coming to the Mac and PC when PS4 system update 3.5 launches. According to Sony, Remote Play will be compatible with the following system software:

  • Windows 8.1
  • Windows 10 or later
  • OS X 10.10
  • OS X 10.11

Sony is also giving you the ability to select resolution and frame rate options, depending on your Internet bandwidth. Unfortunately for those of us with 4K displays (5K in my case) and blazing internet speeds, we won’t have the ability to push the envelope to full 1080p but that likely won’t be a problem for most. Supported resolutions and frame rates include:

  • Resolution options: 360p, 540p, 720p (Default: 540p)
  • Frame rate : Standard (30fps), High (60fps) (Default: Standard)

More details after the jump.

When it comes to your gaming, you’ll be a bit more tethered in than I’m sure you’d like but it shouldn’t be a major hurdle.

 You can use one DualShock 4 as the controller for Remote Play, which needs to be connected to your PC / Mac via a USB cable. 

Once PS4 system update 3.5 has launched, you’ll be able to download Remote Play for Mac or PC from this link.
