The PlayStation 5In addition to being a video game console, it can also be a training center to enjoy streaming video and music services. For the second type, yes, at the moment we only have one option: Spotify, whose relationship with Sony goes back to the days of the PS4. However, it would soon be possible to listen to music through the rival from Cupertino. We refer, of course, to Apple Music
From Eurogamer state that a Reddit user, when setting up a new account on his PlayStation 5, found the option to install the Apple Music app. Obviously, this has not been officially announced. When accepting the installation, the console displays the following message: “This application can only be run on the PS4”.
We do not know exactly what steps must be followed for the interface of the PlayStation 5 to offer to install the Apple Music application. To who Igamesnews we made a new account on the console, but we were unsuccessful in replicating the apparent error. Either way, the official announcement is very likely just around the corner.
Next week, specifically Monday, Apple will celebrate a new keynote. Although it will be focused on hardware products, lately its streaming services have spaces in these events. In addition, it is a natural step for Apple Music to expand to a platform that, at least in terms of sales, dominates the new generation of consoles.
Another point that we cannot go unnoticed is that Apple and Sony recently reached an agreement to offer 6 free months of Apple TV + to PlayStation 5 owners. This promotion, in fact, is still active – it will expire on July 22, 2022. It is available to both new subscribers and those who were already members. Will we see a similar campaign with Apple Music in the near future?
