Sony will host a press conference in Japan on September 9, 2013, with a focus on the PlayStation 4. The presentation will, of course, be in Japanese, but English-speakers can tune in and watch it in a translated livestream, according to the PlayStation Europe Twitter feed. The stream will live on Sony’s PlayStation Blog in Europe, so set your browser accordingly. Prepare to stay up late, too; the 3pm event in Japan converts to 2am Eastern and 11pm Pacific.

The September 9 event happens 10 days before 2013’s annual Tokyo Game Show, which runs from September 19-22. Sony hasn’t yet announced a PlayStation 4 release date for Japan – it’s coming to North America on November 15 and Europe on November 29 – so you can probably expect to get that during next week’s event. We’ll also likely get a launch lineup for the territory, along with some more general news on a few of the upcoming PS4 titles. Expect most of the news to focus on Japanese consumers, but there should be a few interesting nuggets for the rest of the world.

PS Plus members can cloud stream PS5 games in 4K later this month

Aloy stands on a mountain in Horizon Forbidden West.

PS Plus Premium is adding a new feature next month that will allow subscribers to cloud stream select PlayStation 5 games. The initial list includes heavy hitters like Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Horizon Forbidden West. Sony is targeting an October 30 launch in North America.

Cloud streaming has been one of the primary selling points of PS Plus since its relaunch last year. Subscribers can use the feature to access several games in the service's catalog, including PlayStation 3 games. The new feature will now extend that technology to newer PS5 releases, with Sony saying it plans to make "hundreds" of games streamable.
