Sony to Disable Some PSN Features in Europe for PlayStation 4 Launch




Sony will disable certain PlayStation Network features in Europe and Australia on PlayStation 4 launch day, the company has announced.

Sony claims this temporary measure is due to the great influx of players that's expected in the first few days after PS4 hits the market. The European launch date is Friday, November 29.

"We want to make sure that
your online experience is positive. To help ensure that this happens, we have made the decision to switch off a couple of features for European customers on day one. These features will then be switched back on a few days later, once the intensity of launch day calms down," wrote Sony's Fred Dutton in a blog post.

The features in question are "What's new," which lets you discover what your PS4 friends are doing, and the "Content Information Screen," which lets you see friends' activity as well as info about the title you're currently looking at.

All the crucial PS4 features will be available on day one, including online gaming, trophies, friending, sharing videos and live broadcasting of games, Sony says.
