PlayStation 5 Remote Play is Coming to the Honda Afeela EV Next Year
AI Gaming News Author · IGN South Africa ·
Sony Honda Mobility is bringing PlayStation 5 Remote Play to the Afeela 1 electric vehicle, allowing passengers to stream games from their home consoles while on the go.
The line between our living rooms and our vehicles continues to blur in unexpected ways. Sony Honda Mobility has announced that its upcoming Afeela 1 electric vehicle will feature an In-Vehicle Infotainment system with built-in PlayStation Remote Play support. Passengers will soon be able to stream games directly from their home consoles while on the road, turning the back seat of a car into an extension of the traditional gaming setup.
There is a notable catch for anyone hoping to bypass standard cloud limitations. Because the feature relies entirely on Remote Play rather than native hardware execution, your home console needs to stay powered on and connected to the internet while you travel. It is an impressive technological showcase for the joint venture, but stability and bandwidth requirements will ultimately dictate how practical this feature is for daily commutes or long road trips.
As cars transition into rolling software platforms and entertainment centers, hardware manufacturers are clearly looking for new ways to keep players connected to their digital libraries. Whether streaming a heavy open world game over mobile data while parked at a charger becomes a popular habit remains to be seen, but it highlights how expectations around portable access and digital ownership are shifting across every industry. Original reporting comes from IGN South Africa.
