Remote Play is a native functionality of video game consoles by Sony that allows the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 to wirelessly transmit video and audio output to a receiving device, which would also control the console. Remote Play works either nearby, when both the console and the receiver are on the same home local area network, or remotely via the Internet through Sony's servers. Originally built for connectivity with PlayStation Portable, support was later expanded to other Sony devices including PlayStation Vita, PlayStation TV, Xperia-branded smartphones and tablets, and PlayStation Now. In 2016, it was expanded to Microsoft Windows PCs and macOS, and in 2019 to all Android and iOS devices. Remote Play is a mandatory feature on all PS4 and PS5 games, except for games that utilize peripherals such as PlayStation Move.
