Sony has begun rolling out cloud game streaming support for PS5 to select beta users. The console and hardware giant announced the feature in June, giving PS Plus Premium members a chance to try it out.

The service allows you to play PS5 games from the PlayStation Plus catalogue and supported digital titles you own in your library. Sony announced the service as a complementary experience meaning you can use it when a game is downloading or you need to save some hard drive space.
