PS4 System Software Update 3.0 Out September 30

In other Sony news, today saw the release of the PlayStation 4’s newest system software milestone, version 3.0.

First up, there’s a new option to share video clips straight to Twitter from your PS4 – the option is buried in the Upload Video Clip menu between Facebook and YouTube. You can even just watch your friend play the game.

In addition, with the launch of YouTube gaming; the Kenshin update will allow players to stream directly to YouTube as opposed to Twitch if they wish. And you can now grab the latter in PNG as well as JPEG, for higher quality. If you’re looking to chat with other PS4 owners about anime or a specific game, there will no doubt be a community for that.

Aside from YouTube, gamers will also be able to share short clips of their game through their Twitter accounts. It has a message board with general discussion, screenshots shared by players, and the ability to join parties. These can be anything from individual games, to series and entire genres. The idea behind the update, judging by its features, is to bring its gaming community closer together.

As noted by Lazy Gamer, through the Communities sections, players will be able to manage their contacts or friends.
