You Can Remote Play Your PS5 from a PS4

Sony has quietly added a PS5 Remote Play app to PS4, allowing owners of the new console to play it on their old console. The app, which has appeared on PS4 dashboards today (see image below), will seemingly allow PS5 owners to access their console from the last-gen machine, streaming its games, apps and UI. We've tried testing the app, but it currently doesn't appear to function during the pre-release period. Interestingly, this presumably means you can play PS5 games with a DualShock 4 controller – which the PS5 itself doesn't allow. You won't be able to use a PS5 DualSense controller to play on the PS4 - that is unless you used it when remote playing your PS4 from a PC. You could also then remote play your PS5 from the PS4 while on the PC. I don't know why you'd do that, but there it is. With PlayStation 5 being released on November 12 in many regions, we're gearing up for launch .We've got our glowing PS5 review (and a review of its controller), news on launch windows for many of its exclusives, and much, much more.
