This is Amazing finally! Now I can finally take my portal on the go I have build in WiFi in my car so I can play cloud gaming on it 😊 i prefer it that way on the go instead of remote play
A little tip, When in the game catalogue on the PS5 console set the filter list to A - Z . This allows the complete list of games to be viewed when looking at the cloud game catalogue. (at the moment you cant change the filter list on the portal)
@@aaronoutdoors7556 I just bought a brand new portal today because my old one stopped working. The up and down button. So I bought from best buy with a Best Buy warranty. With that being said looks like I got one back just in time. I’m so amped for this update. So what exactly changed. The stuttering? Can you explain?
THEY FINALLY FIXED THE CONNECTION ISSUE👏👏👏👏 it took 2 years and millions of people complaining i can finally step out my front door and won't lose connection seems funny they decided to do it around Christmas time, but there's always a catch you can't play other games unless you have the premium. Im just happy I can lay on the beach or sit in my hotel room and play my game while the wife n kids can do whatever they do.
hey, can you play simultaneously on the ps portal while cloud streaming and also with my roommate on my ps5 on a multiplayer or something with a different account?
If they give you the option to download at least 1 game it would be crazy but idk if they can actually update it for that. Overall though I love the portal without that feature
In this case, am I still able to fully utilize the Portal without owning a PS5? Just a Portal and a PS Plus Premium subscription? Or do I still need to own a PS5 to even configure the Portal? 🙃
Yeah bro my PS5 is in my locker at work haven’t played it in months to busy…after the update I bought a PS Portal same day and been gaming ever since…might seek my PS5
I hope Fortnite is added as one of the games made available to stream so I can get my PS5 back from my son before he gets his own one from Santa! It’s playable on Xcloud without a subscription so hopefully it’s a real possibility.
@@MrsBlaileen1 most software programs that say beta say beta as a disclaimer that it’s still a work in progress program it’s not going away ever unless PlayStation disappears
Sony really need to add local play. The fact that I cannot play PS portal without internet at home is a huge down. If other 3rd party apps can do it, I am sure Sony can do it. They just need to search and detect PS5 under same LAN. There are times when my internet is down. When internet is dead, Portal dies with it.
Yes, your children can play on the portal but they must use a different account than yours that has a PlayStation Plus Premium subscription. They have a catalog of 120 games available to play in the cloud
No, Cloud Streaming use PlayStation servers. all you need is a PlayStation account and a PlayStation Plus Premium subscription. 120 games are currently available.
See gaming just isn’t the same. Don’t get me wrong, i will acknowledge that this is a huge step for the Portal. However, why is it that we have to pay for a 150+ subscription after purchasing a 200 dollar device just to enjoy it
Agreed. I cant believe I have to spend $500 on a PS5 and on top of that, have to buy games! I spend $1000 on a phone, and i have to pay for services every month?? I buy a house ans i have to pay for electricity, heat and water!!! Ridiculous!
You can play cloud streaming with your account and PlayStation Plus Premium Subscription. There are 120 games included in the Game Catalog available for streaming with PlayStation Portal, and another person with a different account can use the PS5
Can someone answer my question? I’m looking to get a ps portal. I have a disc version ps5 , so say I want to play on my portal would that game disc need to be inserted in my Ps5 or not?
@ ok ty so much. I’ve been trying to find this answer. Not sure if the portal is really worth it for me then, I’ve been recently buying a lot of digital games but I do have tons of disc.
This is cool and all but it's still ridiculous how much they're charging for subscriptions PlayStation is a joke I wouldn't waste a penny on them and then you can't play your downloaded games unless you're subscribe to them I mean at least that's how I remember it and it's been over 2 years now that I haven't had a PlayStation I just stick to steam and the whole PC gaming scene Xbox and PlayStation are not doing good no more for me
You should sell it then. It will never play games locally. 1. It doesn't have the specs. 2 it doesn't have enough storage to install a native console game. I believe Sony made that very clear, as well as most youtubers since before it even released. Guess you didn't do your research.
Well it certainly is a game changer, it will change everyone that own a portal from paying $80.00 a year for PS plus to paying $160.00 a year, just to stream old games.
“just to stream old games” as if they’re not going to constantly add new games to it. And a lot of players play older games. They exist to play whenever and now, where ever.
this could have been an app on android and Apple lol they really had to create a useless PS portal just for streaming? 😁 😂 It could have been just a backbone controller plus any type of phone. 😁 😂
What do you think of this update?
@@GeekStreet the update is good, but I’m not paying a premium plan just to play games. I’m good already play on my PlayStation.
@@GeekStreet are the games in the catalogue permanent and will continue to grow or will they change it every month?
@@hitman.123 it‘s better to pay every Game separately?
I haven’t tried cloud yet but streaming from my ps5 seems much improved and the image quality is much better than I used to get.
Appreciate this update video bro, nice one mate 👍🏼
Thanks bro
Got my PS5 pro yesterday. This is next for sure
Enjoy!
Awsome!!! Probably use my portal alot more now

@@JudahiamKng 👌
Who cares about cloud streaming, they fixed the stuttering. That’s the best thing in this patch.
✅️
Agreed! Just tested it and was super impressed by the performance improvement
💯
I already loved my portal but this makes it invaluable now

Its beta version tho?
So the cloud stream is not available for extra subscription its available only for deluxe?
It’s like that on PS5 too tho bro. Same shit
So I can play the portal anywhere without no problems as along it’s on WiFi?
Yes ✅️

Ok one question does the cloud streaming feature allow you to use the portal without having your PS5 on?
Yes that's right
@@GeekStreet but can you play your personal games as well or only the premium plus games
Only premium plus, personal ones would have to be via remote play
Love your videos❤❤
@@thomasandersen1377 thanks 🫶
Do i buy the ps portal or an ipad 10 or a nintendo switch
I don’t think you need a PlayStation five I think you just need the subscription
Yeah, I think that's the case too
It is the case, you need a premium subscription
hey, can you play simultaneously on the ps portal while cloud streaming and also with my roommate on my ps5 on a multiplayer or something with a different account?

Is there any input lag with this update?
The bitrate is still too low in a local streaming setup and we need sony to change that.
Must open films or netflix and play some offline games
That would be awesome!
Can't I just play the games I've bought on my ps5 on the ps portal?
Means just get this handheld
In this case, am I still able to fully utilize the Portal without owning a PS5? Just a Portal and a PS Plus Premium subscription? Or do I still need to own a PS5 to even configure the Portal? 🙃
You don't have to own a ps5 you can utilise with the portal and a subscription
@@CHIEFCHANNEL10010 from my understanding you can now just have a subscription and portal

@@bsp5689 That's sick man. Do you notice any input lag?
@@Jdb63 it was slight at most…bro I almost couldn’t believe it…felt so lucky man
Tempted to buy one. I have a ps5
I just did the update and now my headphones don’t work 🙈 tried two pairs nothing….
I hope Fortnite is added as one of the games made available to stream so I can get my PS5 back from my son before he gets his own one from Santa!
It’s playable on Xcloud without a subscription so hopefully it’s a real possibility.
🤞
Is COD on it?
I want it ! 🤩
Is it free for the streaming the games ?
It feels crazy that an entire feature for a device you paid for in full for, is locked behind a subscription
@@matthewwaldron3826 how is it crazy? You don't feel entitled to have Netflix subscription for free when you buy a TV
Don't worry bro that's just for the beta testing
Can both the portal and console both be played at the same time when cloud streaming
@markryb666 I just tested and no unfortunately not, it's one or the other annoying 😭
@@GeekStreet maybe you can. But it has to run different accounts. Example you run your premium account on Portal and then your sub account on ps5.
Yes but not on the same accounts
How long will the Beta last? How long until the official Cloud streaming release?
@@MrsBlaileen1 most software programs that say beta say beta as a disclaimer that it’s still a work in progress program it’s not going away ever unless PlayStation disappears
Awesome comprehensive guide to this update. You would be crazy not to do it right away.
Thanks bro ❤️
You do know you have to upgrade to PS premium for this to work right? $18.00 a month or $160.00 a year, you stop paying it stops working.
My cloud streaming is not playing smooth is there a way to fix it?
What's e version number for this software update?
£200 for the portal + the £120 yearly subscription to cloud steam. At that point just get a steam deck
Sony really need to add local play. The fact that I cannot play PS portal without internet at home is a huge down. If other 3rd party apps can do it, I am sure Sony can do it. They just need to search and detect PS5 under same LAN. There are times when my internet is down. When internet is dead, Portal dies with it.
Can my kids stream on the portal while I play on the pa5. Different games?
Yes
Yes, your children can play on the portal but they must use a different account than yours that has a PlayStation Plus Premium subscription. They have a catalog of 120 games available to play in the cloud
How do I get my game saves to switch over so don’t have to start a game all over again when not connected to PS5???
Just make sure on your console in 'Saved Data and Game/App Settings' sync saved data is enabled
Do you still need to own a ps5 then?
No
Can I play online COD? Or Will I get banned as with the Legion go out of nowhere
This thing dont need ps5 to play?
@@hamdanrazak9830 correct
No, Cloud Streaming use PlayStation servers. all you need is a PlayStation account and a PlayStation Plus Premium subscription. 120 games are currently available.
Do you have to actually have a ps5 to use this ?
just need a premium subscription for cloud streaming and do not need a PS5

Thats what im saying, here thats £10 more than a steam deck
Forgive my ignorance, can I play this either Cloud Streaming or games I have installed if someone else is using the PS5?
You can play cloud streaming with your account and PlayStation Plus Premium Subscription. There are 120 games included in the Game Catalog available for streaming with PlayStation Portal, and another person with a different account can use the PS5

This is the same question I was wondering about. Great news on you question.
How come mine ain’t showing up?
Still can’t play your owned games still a no for me.

@@robm2630 yes, the disc of whatever game you want to play needs to be in the PS5 just as if you were playing on the PS5 itself.

And I was just going sell it.
@@petethebaker no need now 💪
Ahahah finally this drvice actually does something, but you still need a ps5 right?
Yeah finally, actually I don't see why you'd need a playstation you could just get the subscription and the portal I recon
You don't need a ps5

@85crazytechlaz yeah I know what you mean the price isn't cheap
That is 200%, not how beta is pronounced.
🤔
are the games in the catalogue permanent and will continue to grow or will they change it every month?
It’s like game pass. They don’t change every month but they do rotate games in and out sometimes.
@ so its possible that this month it has for example the witcher 3 then next month it doesnt?
Is Fortnite available to stream on this?
Not yet
It’s a game changer, but I’m not paying $159 for a year just to play this game no
@@hitman.123 Don’t have to. Pay for the months you can afford, or stream from your PS5.

So now nobody is going to buy the ps5 anymore? You can just buy this thing and play all the games
Got this when it came out it’s just been collecting dust the day it allows you to play locally with no internet connection I’ll whip it back out
