- PlayStation Remote Play is a feature that allows users to play PS4 games on other devices, such as PC, Andoird and iOS.
- While Sony has slowly been increasing the number of available Remote Play platforms over the years, there are several key features missing from the service.
- A recent Reddit leak might indicate that a whole swathe of great features could be coming to the service soon.
PlayStation Remote Play is a pretty decent feature. It allows you to play games while you’re away from your PS4 for a start. If your console is hooked up to a communal TV it makes it much easier to get time with your favorite games.
As great as it is, there are certain features that could make it so much better. A recent user survey for the feature might indicate that some of those features may be heading to the service pretty soon.
If PS4 Remote Play gains all of these features it might become a killer service for the PS4. Especially streaming the PS4 to other consoles like the Switch. In general, users on the Reddit thread tended to agree.
Several users commented on how great Remote Play streaming to the Switch would be. Although, some did express doubt that Nintendo would allow it to happen. Another fan favorite feature was the potential to play PS1 and PS2 games via remote play.
In particular, PS1 and PS2 games seem to be the most confusing feature for many. The original poster speculated that this would either come in the form of i ndividual purchases collated into a library or potentially even a streaming service like PSNow or Xbox Game Pass
Right now the future of Remote Play is looking pretty bright.
