<p>Some new details have been released about the PlayStation 4, thanks to a new Q&;A video from PlayStation Access.</p>
<p>To start, the PlayStation 4 will support party chat at launch, and the PSN friends list now caps out at 2,000. 2,000 sounds like too many people to know at any one time but, sure, okay. Remind me to turn off whatever sound plays when people sign-in. Also, for those of you that didn&#8217;t know, your PSN ID does carry over, should you desire to keep it.</p>
<p>In addition, it was confirmed that &#8211; even though you need PlayStation Plus to play online &#8211; it is not required to access apps like Netflix, the aforementioned party chat, or play free-to-play games.</p>
<p>Check out the Q&;A video below, where more questions are asked/answered and remember that the PlayStation 4 releases this holiday (or, like, November).</p>
