PlayStation 4 will support four controllers

4.3
PlayStation 4 will support four controllers - three less than the PS3.

SCE Worldwide Studios head Shuhei Yoshida confirmed the news on Twitter earlier today, specifying that the console will support four controllers at once.

This is down from the seven supported by PS3, and follows news earlier this week that the Xbox One will support eight controllers concurrently.

Yoshida didn't elaborate on the reduction, though very few PS3 games have taken advantage of the system's seven controller support.

According to CVG sources, Sony will reveal a PlayStation-branded virtual reality head-mounted display at the Tokyo Game Show later this month, where it will also show more than 50 games.

Meanwhile, Sony has confirmed the PS4 will support voice navigation and facial recognition via the PlayStation Eye.

PS4 will release November 15 in the US and November 29 in Europe and Australia.

Cokes Kinda to be expected. The classic 4 controllers.


Because playstation don't take any risks, 8 is better just on the occasions when you have 5+ mates round.


When I have more than 5 mates around I just go outside, I never play xbox with alot of friends on splitscreen, mostly 2.

Wokze Standard 4, even though Xbox have 8, I think 4 is enough, but its good to have 8 anyways.


Same, 4 is more than enough, I will never use more than 4 controllers anyways.

Lightyear This is more than enough, 8 controllers is way to much and I wouldn't even buy more than 3.
