DualShock 4 USB Wireless Dongle for PC Revealed

Sony has confirmed that the PlayStation Now service is coming to PC very soon.

PlayStation Now is a service that gamers can subscribe to in order to play certain PS3 titles streamed to their PS4. The service is offering a seven-day free trial at the moment. The two available subscription plans are a one-month subscription for $19.99 or a three-month subscription for $44.99. With this announcement, PC gamers will be able to play exclusive franchises like Uncharted or Ratchet & Clank on their PCs, as well as the over 400 titles available in the PlayStation Now library.

Sony had another announcement to bring to light; they’re releasing a DualShock 4 USB wireless adapter. This $24.99 adapter is used to connect a DualShock 4 controller wirelessly to both PCs and Macs. While the ability to use a DualShock 4 with a USB cable has been around for quite some time, this is the first official wireless adapter.

“The adapter is a great match for playing PS Now on a computer, but you can also use it for PS4 Remote Play on PC and Mac. If you haven’t yet downloaded Remote Play on your PC or Mac, grab the installer here. Of course, owning the USB Wireless Adapter isn’t required, as you can connect a DualShock 4 using a USB cable.

Here are the recommended specs for running PS Now on your PC:

Windows 7 (SP1), 8.1 or 10
3.5 GHz Intel Core i3 or 3.8 GHz AMD A10 or faster
300 MB or more; 2 GB or more of RAM
Sound card; USB port”
