The Sony PS4 is getting its biggest update today with the release of the Sony PS4 System Software v2.00, codenamed Masamune. The new PS4 software update brings Share Play, YouTube integration, USB music player, ability to find players you /4/know, sorting options for PS4’s game library, and themes that change the look of your home screen.
The New Sony PS4 features include:
Share Play: 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. PlayStation Plus membership is required for certain Share Play features.
YouTube: Upload your gameplay highlights directly from PS4 to YouTube by clicking the “SHARE” button on DualShock 4. In addition, a YouTube app for PS4 will be available to download from the PlayStation Store.
Themes & Colors: Personalize your home screen background with select themes and colors. As a big thank-you to the PlayStation Nation, we want to kick-start your dynamic theme options by giving away a theme for two of the biggest titles gamers will be playing on PlayStation 4 this fall; Destiny and Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Both themes will be available for download on Tuesday.
Live Broadcasting Enhancements: Search filters, archived broadcast support and more have been added to Live from PlayStation
Content Area & Library: Find and access your content quicker with a redesigned Content Area and improved filter and sort functions for the PS4 Library.
USB Music Player: Insert USB memory with music in your PS4 and start playing your favorite tunes in the background.
What’s New: To make the activity feed more relevant and timely for you, What’s New will add Friends of Friends suggestions and Live Broadcasting updates from your friends at the top of your feed.
