According to the leaks on the official European website of PlayStation, the Sony’s PlayStation now which is a game streaming service is now all set to come to the PC’s.
To make the experience as seamless as possible, Sony is also launching the new DualShock 4 USB Wireless Adapter.
Upstream of its event taking place on 7 September in New York, Sony Computer Entertainment announced the upcoming release of PlayStation Now on PC (Windows only).
PlayStation Now subscribers currently have access to over 400 titles, including franchises like Ratchet & Clank, and hit titles like The Last of Us and Journey.
The blog post doesn’t directly explain whether PS Now on PC will work without the DualShock (i.e. with PC pads or even Xbox One pads), but it seems likely as Sony would prefer a DualShock purchase to “enable every feature” of the controls offered.
Now, it appears that the two-way contest has become a triple threat warfare after Sony launched PS Now for the PC platform.
To benefit, you should download the compatible application on Windows 7 (SP1), Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, and have a machine equipped with a minimum of an Intel Core i3 processor clocked at 3.5 GHz, or AMD A10 APU clocked at 3.8 GHz and 2 GB of RAM.
The most important request, however, is a 5Mbps internet connection. However, as the tech company is yet to announce the slimmer version, it has been said that at least one gamer in the United Kingdom already has one.
