14 DAY TRIAL // The team at Sony working on the PlayStation 4 announces that it is getting ready to launch a new Live Event Viewer application for the home console, which is designed to allow users to get access to a wide variety of major live concerts, sports competitions, and other types of entertainment.
The company states on the official PS Blog that “Delivered straight to your living room from your PS4 and PS3 systems, the Live Events Viewer gives users the opportunity to watch exciting live content or catch up with on-demand viewing of UFC and wrestling events, concerts, races and more all with no subscription and no commitments.”
The big first event that will be streamed to the PlayStation 4 is the UFC 177 gala from August 30, which will feature champion TJ Dillashaw in his first title defense against former bantamweight champion Renan Barao.
Some of the content on the Live Event Viewer will be offered for free and some needs to be purchased from the official PlayStation store.
At the same time, Sony says that there will be differences based on the market in which various events are offered.
The company has said that it will continue to expand the entertainment options for the PlayStation 4 via new apps and features.
