“When this feature launches, cloud game streaming for supported PS5 titles will be available for use directly on your PS5 console.”

Maguire further mentioned that this feature is currently in the early stages.

Meanwhile, last month, the tech giant had revealed the first look of a new handheld device for playing PS5 games via remote play over Wi-Fi which will hit the market soon.

PlayStation’s first-ever official wireless earbuds were also announced, bringing next-generation audio immersion to PS5 as well as PC, along with connectivity to smartphones via Bluetooth.
