Setup

Your remote playing journey begins at home. You'll need a PlayStation console to start the entire process. The PlayStation will have to be connected to the internet at all times. A hardwired LAN connection is best for remote play, but it's not necessary. Wifi will still be able to handle most games.

Once your PlayStation is connected to the internet, you'll have to enable remote play in the console's settings.

  1. Scroll up to the top crossbar menu.

  2. Go right to the Settings Toolbox.

  3. Scroll down to Remote Play Connection Settings.

  4. Check Enable Remote Play.

Once your system is ready to connect to other devices, you'll need to download the PlayStation Remote Play application on the device you plan on using. All of the devices I mentioned above can work, so it comes down to personal preference.

Do you want a bigger screen to play your games? Then a Laptop will be the best option. If you don't want to carry a controller with you, then the PS Vita will be the better choice. Most people will already have a phone or tablet with them, so merely carrying a controller along will be easy to throw in your bag.

Play

Whatever device you decide to use, you'll have to connect it while you are home. Open the Remote Play app and select whether you'll want to connect to a PS5 or PS4. Your device will search for any resting or turned on console on the same network.

If your device cannot find a console, it will ask you to copy a code that you can see in the Remote Play settings under Add Device.

Lastly, you'll have to connect a controller to your mobile device. This can be done in several ways, but ultimately it depends on the controller you are using. Third-party controllers like the Razer Kishi and Backbone are plugged right into your phone, but others may use Bluetooth or a USB cable.

PlayStation's own Dualshock 4 will connect to just about any device using Bluetooth. Simply hold the Share button and the PlayStation button until the top light flashes repeatedly. Then search for the controller on your device's Bluetooth list.

PlayStation's Dualsense, on the other hand, is not officially supported on all devices yet. Right now, it is Mac and PC only via USB. Just connect the controller to the computer with a USB C cable, and that's it. Support for iOS and Android should be coming soon in future operating system updates. After those updates, pairing will work the same way it does with Dualshock 4 Bluetooth pairing.

The initial setup for Remote Play will likely be the most challenging part. After the first time, it will be as easy as logging into your PSN account in the app.
