PS Plus Streaming

So with some Fortnite skins currently available through PSN I thought time to test streaming . So started one of the biggest games of the planet in cloud streaming mode and get greeted by you have to restart Fortnite for a patch to be downloaded. So it restarted and took .2 seconds, sweet!

Really great start but, well I could have gotten one good „machine“ let‘s try this again. So I waited, changed IP‘s and even tried it from a second account and apparently Fortnite works great atm!

I mean every streaming service has a problem one time or another. But one of the biggest games on the planet, while a promotion for that game is running on your service, is working? Come on Sony that is awesome!

Tested it on XCloud and it is working just fine, so not an Epic problem either. But yeah, your mileage may vary as services depend a lot on your connection and location when using cloud services.

Happy gaming!

Why are you streaming fortnite instead of downloading it? Wouldn't streaming add a bit of latency/lag to your matches?

It works great for some of the less twitchy game modes they have now if you’re low on hard drive space.

Been playing some Home Alone hide and seek mode lately for the holiday luls and it’s been perfect.
