You don’t have to pick up a PS4 to take advantage of PlayStation Vue’s multi-picture mode in your living room. Sony is introducing the multi-view feature to the Apple TV (not pictured here) on March 18th through an update, and it’ll even one-up the PS4 version by supporting four channels at once instead of three. If you absolutely have to keep tabs on news and sports, you won’t have to feel like you’re missing out.
PS4 owners won’t be left in the lurch. Sony is updating multi-view on its own device with real-time program changes (you won’t have to start from scratch every time you want to add a new program) as well as dedicated News and Sports tabs to help find programming that much faster. Neither the Apple TV nor PS4 additions will likely persuade you to subscribe to Vue by themselves, but they might tip the balance if you’re prone to switch channels during live events.
