PS4 is a video game console developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment. As the successor to the PlayStation 3, PS4 shares many features with its predecessor. A key difference is that PS4s are able to play digital games purchased from the PlayStation Store without the need of a disc. Digital games can also be shared with other accounts on the same console. Another major new feature is Remote Play, which allows users to stream games from their PS4 to a handheld device such as a PlayStation Vita or Xperia smartphone and tablet.

In order to take advantage of these features, you’ll need to create a PS4 account.

To create a new account on PS4, press and hold the PS button to open the quick menu. Select Power > Switch User > New User > Create a User. Enter your name, date of birth, gender and email address. Verify your email address and follow the on-screen prompts to create your account.
