The PlayStation mobile app is terrible- it’s not quite as bad as Nintendo’s app, but it’s still been slow, clunky, and basically just utterly useless (especially ever since Sony split out the Communities and messaging functionality from it into separate apps) for a while now.

Thankfully, it sounds like Sony’s trying to fix that. They have released a brand new update for the app, which gives it a face lift and updates its UI, from being less like it is on PS4 to something more suited to a touch screen enabled smartphone. It’s unclear whether this will make it any more useful than it has been- but at the very least, it won’t be a total pain to use anymore.

The update should be available on the App Store (if you are on iPhone) or Google Play (for Android devices). Hopefully, Sony continues improving its mobile app in the days to come, too.

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.
