Overview
- Cloud streaming went live at 03:00 CET on November 6 for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers.
- PlayStation Portal is the first device to support direct PS5 cloud streaming without downloads or a running local console.
- Thousands of owned digital PS5 titles are supported at launch alongside hundreds from the PlayStation Plus catalogs, including Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Grand Theft Auto V and Resident Evil 4.
- The update redesigns the home screen into Remote Play, Cloud‑Streaming and Search tabs and adds in‑session purchases, 3D audio, a passcode lock, a network status screen and quick‑menu multiplayer invites.
- Sony cites 5 Mbit/s as a basic threshold, recommends at least 15 Mbit/s for smoother play and 23 Mbit/s for 1080p, matching the Portal’s 1080p/60 Hz display.
