Sony Pictures Core – Sony PlayStation 4 and 5 users have gained access to the VOD service. How does the show compare to Netflix?

Owners of Sony consoles version 4 and above, in addition to using them for games, have many opportunities to watch movies. It’s all thanks to the built-in Blu-ray drive, plus access to an app store that allows you to browse the show from VOD services. Sony has just introduced another title called Sony Pictures Core. Thanks to it, users will be able to rent and watch a large database of films.

Owners of Sony PlayStation 4 and 5 consoles have another option for watching movies via streaming – Sony Pictures Core. This application will provide access to hundreds of video materials, and special bonuses await PS Plus subscribers.

Sony showed off 6 games for PS VR2, including Among Us, The Foglands, and Journey to Foundation

Some time ago, Sony introduced a new streaming service called BRAVIA CORE, which was created specifically for the BRAVIA XR TV series. Thanks to it, every user of the specific model produced in 2021 and later has access to a large database of films, including exclusive titles. The element that distinguished this solution from competitors was image quality. BRAVIA CORE gave users access to 4K video material (with HDR), and the bit rate was up to 80 Mb/s. It should be noted that the application was also available on select devices from the Xperia series. Starting next year, the service will be called Sony Pictures Core, and owners of the aforementioned consoles have already gained access to the “new products.”

The Sony PlayStation 5 console is finally getting a feature in the PS Store that was available in previous generations

To use the application, simply download it from the console and register for the service. The offer includes more than 2000 titles that we can rent and buy. We’re talking about relatively new productions, like Spider-Man: Through the Multiverse, as well as slightly older films. Users will also get a special opportunity to watch the production in early access. In select markets, including Poland, the number one film in this category will soon be Gran Turismo (world premiere: August 9, 2023). Interestingly, when we decide to buy this movie, we will get credits that we can use in Gran Turismo 7 (for example, there will be car models from the movie).

In return, PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers will get access to the catalog of films that they will be able to watch as part of the subscription (maximum of 100 titles). The films will be ad-free, and some of the titles are: Looper, Final Fantasy XV: Kingsguard, Elysium, and Resident Evil: Damnation. Special benefits for PS Plus subscribers have also been announced, but we will have to wait for more details. Finally, Sony added that the offer will be constantly expanded and anime productions will appear (Crunchyroll).
