The PS4 1.70 update will allow you to preload games purchased digitally, meaning you won't have to miss out on valuable gaming hours downloading a new title on launch day. These games will unlock on the day of release, as you might expect, and each game will have its own countdown so you know exactly when you'll be able to boot it up for the first time.
There's also going to be SHAREfactory, which will allow you to apply basic edits to your Share button antics, and apply commentary or on-screen text. You'll also be able to import your own music for your videos.
Edited videos will also be able to be exported to a USB drive, Sony says. Then if you pop that drive into your computer, it shouldn't be too much effort to upload it to YouTube, if that's what you're after--you can still only upload your clips directly to Facebook via the PS4 itself right now.
As previously announced, the PS4 1.70 system update will also allow you disable HDCP on your games, allowing you to pass the signal through an external capture device (such as an Elgato) and edit them yourselves.
There's no release date yet, but Sony says it will be coming soon.
Sony also released a new trailer for SHAREfactory, allowing you to have a look at how the new app will work:

Maybe Ubisoft has a method to their madness as it pertains to PAX East goers this year not having a chance to get a hands-on with the already controversial and delay-prone Watch Dogs. Perhaps they just figured that a hack your Facebook gimmick was enough to tide us over until next month. Maybe all of that is true, but it doesnt change the fact that a game that has been in development for as long as Watch Dogs with a release date only about month out should by all rights have had even a 10 minute playable demo. We got nothing of the sort however.
We've struck gold! We Vita owners, that is.
Over on the Terraria Facebook page, it's been confirmed that the next major version of the Silver Award-winning game will go live on consoles on April 17th.
This won't just include a bunch of bug fixes, by the way (though there will be plenty of them). No, this is a huge content-filled update.
