In conjunction with this announcement, a new PlayStation app has also been released for Android and iOS that has features like enabling users to enter promotional codes from within the app other than from the PS4 console, and also letting users see comments on streams from within the app when video is being played from the console.

Besides the increased storage, the casing of the unit has also been modified to a slimmer profile along with optimizations that make the unit more power efficient: overall the console is now 10 percent lighter while utilizing 8 percent lesser power.

To start, the new console will be available in select European and Asian regions, but specifics have not been revealed. No pricing details have been announced either. Stay tuned as more information becomes available.
