PlayStation 5<\/ins><\/a> and PlayStation 4<\/ins><\/a> consoles will soon drop their X (formerly Twitter) integrations. As such, after November 13, you’ll no longer be able to post clips or screenshots directly to X from either system.<\/p>\n

According to a notice Sony shared on its consoles (as noted by Wario64<\/ins><\/a>) and a support page<\/ins><\/a>, users will lose the ability to “post and view content, trophies and other gameplay-related activities on X directly from PS5\/PS4 (or link an X account to do so).” Sony added the notice to its website at some point on Monday, according to a cached version of the support page<\/ins><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sony hasn’t revealed exactly why it’s killing off X integration on its consoles. However, it may be related to X shutting down its free API earlier this year<\/ins><\/a>, forcing developers and companies to pay if they want to hook into its services. Microsoft stopped letting users post Xbox clips directly to X<\/ins><\/a> in April, likely due to that move.<\/p>\n

It’ll still be possible to post your PlayStation clips to X. If you have a PS5, you’ll be able to access your recent captures through the PS App<\/ins><\/a> and share them to X from your phone. PS4 owners (and PS5 users, if they prefer this approach) will need to use a USB drive to copy screenshots and clips to their computer. Alternatively, you can use one of the several other direct sharing options available on PS4 and PS5, such as YouTube.<\/p>\n
