PlayStation 4 will support four controllers

4.3
PlayStation 4 will support four controllers - three less than the PS3.

SCE Worldwide Studios head Shuhei Yoshida confirmed the news on Twitter earlier today, specifying that the console will support four controllers at once.

This is down from the seven supported by PS3, and follows news earlier this week that the Xbox One will support eight controllers concurrently.

Yoshida didn't elaborate on the reduction, though very few PS3 games have taken advantage of the system's seven controller support.

According to CVG sources, Sony will reveal a PlayStation-branded virtual reality head-mounted display at the Tokyo Game Show later this month, where it will also show more than 50 games.

Meanwhile, Sony has confirmed the PS4 will support voice navigation and facial recognition via the PlayStation Eye.

PS4 will release November 15 in the US and November 29 in Europe and Australia.

I don't think any more than 4 look good on the screen

LWT I think four is better than eight


I hope you're joking, that's the most pathetic thing I have ever seen. Xbox One supports 4 and above therefore it can't be worst to have more than less.

But Xbox can support 4. And beyond. More is better than less.(gaming wise)

The Sony fanboyism on these comments is ridiculous.
How can you say that it is better to only support 4 controllers? Yes you may never use 8 controllers on the Xbox One but at least you know if you have over 4 friends over you can all play FIFA at the same time.

-SWFT PS4 fanboys complaining about Xbox One having 8,
Imagine when Fifa 14 is out on Xbox One and PS4,
PS4 supports 4 Players , Xbox One supports 8 Players,(C'mon Sony its suppose to be "NEXT-GEN" Xbox 360 supported that 10 years ago)
The Japanese should stick to making Tv's and Vcrs LOOL,
Come at me fanboys.

PS4 = PeaceofSh!t4


Or maybe we will be playing better games than shitty Fifa on the better gaming console.


Go do your research lol, so ps4 has the worst games(launch wise) FIFA is possibly the biggest selling game now so once again gg


I have thank you anyway for the advice, Infamous Second Son ? Killzone ShadowFall ? Warframe? Blacklight: Retribution ?. Once again, never use the phrase GG in an argument you just sound like a twelve year old.


Black light blows, it used to be an arcade game. And those other games are basically updated boring remakes. There is no "hype" surrounding any of that lol. Please your argument is invalid. I'm going to leave because its like arguing with someone who thinks the wiiU is a great console
