UPDATE: Following its earlier blunder, Sony has officially announced that PlayStation Now will be available on PC in the UK, Belgium and Netherlands from today, August 24, and shortly after in North America.
It also officially revealed the DualShock 4 USB Wireless Adapter, which lets players wirelessly connect their controller to a PC or Mac. The adapter also functions with PS4 Remote Play, allowing you to stream PS4 games to your PC or Mac.
The adapter goes on sale from September 15, although a price has yet to be confirmed.

ORIGINAL REPORT: Sony’s streaming service PlayStation Now is coming to PC – but it probably doesn’t want you to know that yet.
The reveal was unintentionally leaked by metadata on the European PlayStation Blog, in which various images on a new PlayStation VR Worlds post are labelled “PS Now on PC Announce Post”.
The announcement post doesn’t yet exist, but you should probably expect to see it very soon.
PlayStation Now is a cloud gaming service lets users stream a variety of PS3 games to their device, with a 30 day subscription costing £12.99. The service is currently available on PS4, PS3, PS Vita and select TVs.
It hasn’t been a great day for Sony. Earlier today it was revealed that the PS4 Slim would ship with a new DualShock 4 controller, even though the console has still to be officially announced.
Then, Sony leaked the release date for Dark Souls 3’s first DLC expansion ahead of an official announcement from publisher Bandai Namco. A wireless adapter for the DualShock 4 has also shown up on Amazon France, again ahead of any official announcement.
