Today Spotify will launch on the PS4 as a new feature for the console owners to enjoy. It will allow players to listen to music from Spotify on the system and in game as well. According to PlayStation the features are as follows:
- Soundtrack your game: With background listening on PlayStation 4 system, you can soundtrack your gaming sessions with your favourite tracks. You might die a few times at the hands (or claws) of memorably terrifying monsters in the critically-acclaimed action RPG Bloodborne, so why not do it to the music of your choice? Upbeat pop, thumping hip-hop, soothing classical…With over 30 million tracks, we’ve got you covered either way.
- On-demand music for everyone: Enjoy all of your favourite tunes on-demand. Pick one of your favourites from Your Music or Browse to find the perfect playlist for every mood and moment. We’ve even got a set of new gaming playlists for you.
- No need to pause: Spotify Connect lets you skip tracks or turn up the music using your mobile device or tablet, without ever having to interrupt your gaminTg experience.
In relation to the announcement Gustav Söderström who is the Chief Product Officer at Spotify said y. “I remember playing computer games like Quake and Counter-Strike with my favourite tunes on in the background – taking the experience to a whole new level. With today’s launch, we’re bringing back that magic of gaming with music – all in a beautifully designed and smooth experience that looks great on the big screen”
The Service will be available from today on PS4, PS3 and Xperia phone and tablet devices.
