Sonys alldeles egna Jim Ryan tog upp scenen på företagets Gamescom-mässa nyligen och gjorde en hel radda av utannonseringar rörande deras konsol Playstation 4 (ni är nog bekanta med den vid det här laget). Specifikt rörde det den uppkommande uppdateringen v2.00 som kommer göra videouppladdningar till Youtube och Share Play möjliga, bland annat. Uppdateringen fick en detaljerad genomgång på Playstation-bloggen och här nedan läser ni huvudpunkterna:
Today at the PlayStation press conference at Gamescom, we will deliver on yet another promise from the PS4 announcement and introduce Share Play, coming to PlayStation 4 later this autumn.
The best way to think about Share Play is like a "virtual sofa". PlayStation 4 will create an online local co-op experience by allowing you to invite a friend to join your game-even when they don't own a copy of it. With this first-of-its-kind feature, you'll be able to play games with a friend just as if you were together in the same room.
With Share Play, you can even jump into a game to assist a friend. For example, if there is part of a game that you can't quite finish, you can invite a friend to take over your controls. Like handing over the controller to a friend on your couch, your screen will be shared as your friend gets through the part of the game that has been giving you trouble-can't get past that part in The Last of Us: Remastered when you're hanging upside down? Get a little help.
Share Play will be coming to PS4 as part of the upcoming system software update v2.00, scheduled for release this autumn. The update will also add highly requested broadcast and video share features, including both uploading you game play footage and dedicated app support for YouTube, which we mentioned on stage at E3. Finally, What's New will get enhanced real-time activity through friend-of-friend suggestions, allowing instant access to friends' and recently played games' broadcast More features to come when v2.00 is available, and will let you know.
We always want to hear your feedback and look forward to what you are most excited to experience together first Share Play when the feature comes to PS4 this autumn. What will you co-op first with Share Play?
Så det var det. Vad tycker ni, Gamereactor? Är detta något ni sett fram emot?
