After weeks of rumours and leaks, Sony today announced that their subcribtion based service, PlayStation Now, is making its way to Windows PC.
And yes, that means you will be able to play PlayStation exclusive titles “including entries in the Uncharted, God of War, and Ratchet & Clank franchises, as well as beloved PS3 games like The Last of Us and Journey” on your Windows PC.
Sony will also start shipping a new DualShock 4 USB Wireless Adaptor, in early September for a suggested retail price of $24.99 which translates to 1,680 INR.
The adaptor will let you connect a DualShock 4 to PC and Mac wirelessly, and will enable every feature of the controller: buttons, analog sticks, touch pad, light bar, motion sensors, vibration, and stereo headset jack.
Here are the recommended specs for running PS Now on your PC:

- 300 MB or more; 2 GB or more of RAM
- Sound card; USB port
- A minimum 5Mbps connection is required to use PS Now on any device. Well, Sony recommended a wired Internet connection for the “optimal experience.”
The app will soon launch in parts of Europe and will “come to North America shortly thereafter.”
