Twitter Sharing on PlayStation Ends on November 13
/
Sony Interactive Entertainment announced that on November 13, 2023, they will remove X (formally known as Twitter) integration on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 systems, eliminating users the ability to share their content or make posts directly from their consoles.
Here’s the official announcement from Sony:
“As of November 13, 2023, integration with X (formerly known as Twitter) will no longer function on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 consoles. This includes the ability to view any content published on X on PS5/PS4, and the ability to post and view content, trophies, and other gameplay-related activities on X directly from PS5/PS4 (or link an X account to do so).”
Sony has not yet disclosed why they are disabling the X/Twitter functionality on their system, but it’s likely related to Twitter/X’s API price increase that happened early this year. Microsoft also disabled the feature to share content through the social media app last April.
It’s not completely lost as there’s still an option to share their in-game content and screenshots, but they’ll have to use the ShareFactory App on the PS4 or the PlayStation app on their phone for PlayStation.
Life is Strange: Double Exposure brings back Max Caulfield with new time-manipulation powers, but struggles to capture the original’s emotional weight. While the dual-timeline mechanic is engaging, the story’s weak twists, forgettable characters, and technical issues hold it back. A nostalgic revisit, but not a standout entry in the series.
