The fact was revealed in a new video recorded by an audience member at the recent GameStop Expo. Sony confirmed the same as a spokesperson stated to Eurogamer that “We can confirm that PS Camera does allow voice recognition. We will share more details on this shortly.”

The question is: How will the PlayStation 4 utilize the feature? We know that the Xbox One uses extensive voice recognition that allows you to snap applications together, switch between games and apps, activate different features and much. Will the PS4 camera have some common features in terms of accessing media and surfing the web, but be kept separate from actual gameplay? We’ll find out soon.

Of course, they didn’t specify who was developing what for which platform (though some of them we already know about). The full list is as follows: Activision Blizzard, Atlus, Bethesda Games, Bluepoint Games, Bungie, Capcom, Deep Down, Disney Interactive, EA, Insomniac Games, Konami, Level-5, Nordic Games, Rockstar Games, Sanzaru Games, Sega, Square Enix, Sumo Digital, Take-Two, Ubisoft, Warner Bros. and Zindagi Games.

Some of these, including Bungie’s tie-up for Destiny and Bethesda’s exclusive The Elder Scrolls Online PS4 beta, are obvious. However, what about companies like Rockstar Games – which had Agent in development for the PS3 before putting it on the back burner – and Sega, who is currently in bed with Nintendo? Then again, those could just be PlayStation Vita titles but it definitely remains to be seen what announcements will crop up in the coming months.
