PS4's Twitch App Streams to the NA PlayStation Store

If you've been twitching over the prospect of watching people play video games on your, er, video game console ever since a native Twitch app was announced for the PlayStation 4, then you may be thrilled to learn that the functionality has rolled out in North America today. It's important to note that this isn't a replacement for Live from PlayStation, but more of a complement that will allow you to watch feeds from other formats.

There's a trailer below which shows of some of the main features, and also confirms that PlayStation 3 and Vita apps are still on the way. The user interface looks almost identical to the Xbox One, which is an interesting design choice. Still, we know that a lot of people have been asking for this, so hopefully it all works as advertised. There's no word on a European release date just yet, but we can't imagine that it will be too far behind.
