PS4 game pre-loading for purchases on the PlayStation Store will begin with Activision and Bungie’s Destiny, Sony has confirmed.

When pre-loading was announced back in April as part of the 1.7 PS4 Update many assumed the feature would be supported by high profile titles such as Wolfenstein and Watch Dogs, but this isn’t the case.

An updated PlayStation Support page states: “Beginning with Destiny, certain pre-ordered titles can be automatically be pre-loaded prior to their release. This lets you rest easy knowing that your game will be ready for play the second its release date hits.”

The page also notes that “only titles designated as having pre-load functionality at the time of pre-order purchase can be pre-loaded”.

Sony support told DualShockers that Ubisoft doesn’t support pre-loading, hence why Watch Dogs doesn’t offer that option.
