Although at first it was an accessory exclusively for the Sony Xperia Z3, the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact and the Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact, the Japanese company Sony has confirmed that the remote control of the PlayStation 4 (" PS4 Remote Play ") It will also be compatible with the Sony Xperia Z2 and the Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet. This compatibility will begin to work from the month of November, probably coinciding with the arrival of the Android 4.4.4 KitKat update to the Sony Xperia Z2.
The PS4 Remote Play is an official Sony accessory that is placed on the DualShock 4 controller of the PlayStation 4, thus allowing the Sony Xperia Z2 or Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet to be attached later through a simple suction cup system. Once the terminal is placed, this accessory allows you to play the PlayStation 4 by viewing the content of the game directly on the screen of the mobile or tablet, which means that it is not necessary to have a television to enjoy PS4 games. In addition, as we learned through recent leaks, the price of this accessory could be set at a figure that would bebetween 20 and 30 euros.
On the other hand, the Sony Xperia Z2 (along with the Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet) starred in a leak a few days ago in which the imminent arrival of the Android 4.4.4 KitKat update to this smartphone was revealed. This update (with the name 23.0.1.A.0.167) will not only incorporate the compatibility of the PS4 Remote Play, but will also bring with it other news that today only incorporates the new Sony Xperia Z3. Among these novelties it is worth highlighting the option to record the screen(it works the same as the option to take screenshots with the difference that it allows a video recording of what happens in the interface) and the battery -saving Ultra STAMINA mode, as well as other small changes with bug fixes that they will be released at the time this update is distributed.
At the moment it is unknown whether this support accessory PlayStation 4 from Sony will come to other phones such as, for example, the Sony Xperia Z Ultra (released to the market during the last year 2013). In principle, it does not seem that there will be more terminals on the list, since the information from which the compatibility of the Sony Xperia Z2 and the Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet has been confirmed does not make any reference to other models in the Xperia range. We will have to wait at the beginning of November to confirm both the final compatibility of the PS4 Remote Play and itsstarting price, which we remember could be around a figure close to 30 euros.
