The PS5 entertainment app lineup includes:

The Apple TV app will also be available on PS4.

• Netflix – Of course, Netflix is here.
  
• Spotify – Spotify is back, back again.
  
• Twitch – Twitch is also back, so you watch your favourite streamers or stream yourself.

Additional streaming apps coming to the PS5 at launch include Amazon Prime Video, MyCanal, Hulu, Peacock, Crunchyroll, and more.

The PS5 will launch on 12 November 2020 in the United States, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea, and 19 November 2020 in the rest of the world including Europe, Middle East, South America, Asia, and South Africa.
