Prepare to experience exciting new ways to play with innovative cross-platform features that bring your PS Vita and PlayStation 3 together.
Did you know that your PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 3 systems can interact, connect and share content with each other? This perfect PlayStation partnership can unleash staggering gameplay possibilities. Here are all the ways you can enhance your gaming experience:
Cross-Play
What does it mean?
Want to take on your PS3 owning mates while you're on the move on PS Vita - or vice versa? Go head-to-head in simultaneous Cross-Play online multiplayer modes. If you can't get online at the same time as your pals, certain titles use turn-based Cross-Play which gives you the chance to post top scores and challenges via PlayStation Network for your friends to tackle whenever they want.
It's ideal for... battling your mates and creating new friends whenever you want, wherever you want.
Cross-Controller
What does it mean?
Your PS Vita can be used as a PS3 wireless controller in selected games, giving you the edge by using the PS Vita system's unique touch based features.
It's ideal for... when you don't have a spare wireless controller to hand, or if a friend or family member has borrowed it for longer than you'd like.
Cross-Save
What does it mean?
When there's not enough time to finish off a tricky level, Cross-Save is your best friend. It lets you continue your progress when you switch to another system so you never miss a moment of the action. Simply sign in to PlayStation Network, save your game and then you can pick up where you left off on either PS Vita or PS3.
It's ideal for... when you're in a rush to complete the hottest new game or if you can't wait to blast through the next level of your favourite title.
Cross-Goods
What does it mean?
Unlock or create amazing in-game items and downloaded content, then use them when playing on both PS Vita and PS3. Take your exciting new extras anywhere you go.
It's ideal for... showing off your latest collectibles and making sure your game never ends.
Cross-Buy
What does it mean?
Bargain hunters will love Cross-Buy - this value-packed feature means you'll only have to pay once to receive both PS Vita and PS3 versions of certain games.*
It's ideal for... getting maximum value for money from your games, especially when it's combined with any of the other cross-platform features.
Remote Play
What does it mean?
Remotely access your PS3 from your PS Vita and enjoy particular games and services when you're away from your TV.
It's ideal for... keeping the peace when you want to play some great PS3 games without hogging the TV.
