Sony announces Gaikai-powered PlayStation Now game-streaming service for PS4, Bravia TVs, and more

Sony is about to unleash its cloud-gaming initiative.

At the 2014 International CES in Las Vegas, Sony Computer Entertainment boss Andrew House unveiled PlayStation Now, which is the company’s new game-streaming service. It will use Gaikai, the cloud-powered gaming infrastructure that Sony acquired in July 2012 for $380 million, to serve up games instantly via the Internet to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, and Sony Bravia television sets, smartphones, and tablets.
