    The Xperia Z3 compact tablet line will feature remote play with the PS4, Sony announced today. The Z3 is the only tablet to have remote play with PS4, though the Vita allows these functions, too (and it comes with a controller already attached). Connect the Z3 to a PS4 over Wi-Fi and users are able to play PS4 games, with a PS4 controller, on the tablet. Players can control the PS4, watch games remotely and interact with PS4 friends on the Z3. Sony also announced a new Game Control Mount that hooks onto the PS4 controller and holds the Z3 in place.

  • Sony PS4 Remote Play and Game Control Mount coming to Z3 devices

    Sony has announced that its new Z3 lineup will exclusively get PS4 Remote Play, a service that has so far only worked with the Vita. The console will detect your Z3 device over WiFi and unlock it, letting you play with a DualShock4 wireless controller using the new GCM10 Game Control Mount (see the image below). On top of playing games, you'll also be able to use a Z3 device as a second screen to view livestreams (of games, of course) or chat over the PlayStation Network. Sony kept using the word "exclusive" with Remote Play, so if you're using a non-Z3 handset, it seems you'll be out of luck. The mount and service will likely arrive when the Z3s do, along with the pricing.
