What is Remote Play?

Remote Play is a feature that lets the PlayStation TV operate a PS4 system via a wired or wireless connection. This gives you the ability to play most PS4 games away from the PS4 system on your PlayStation TV in another room in your home.

Most PS4 games support Remote Play; however, you should look for a "Remote Play" icon on the back of your game's box, or consult the game's instruction manual for confirmation. For digital downloads, you can check the item's description in the PlayStation Store, before or after purchase.
