Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare isn't playing nice with the Share Play feature on Sony's PlayStation 4.
Advanced Warfare blocks all Share Play functionality, GameSpot confirmed. When gamers try to use the online game-sharing feature, all gameplay footage is marked as censored, according to GameSpot. While this doesn't affect the owner's console, it prevents games from being streamed to a second PS4.
Share Play lets gamers stream game content to friends over the Internet -- essentially letting two PS4 owners play a single copy of a game. Using Share Play, the owner of a game, called the host, can stream gameplay footage to a second PS4 console, called the guest. The host can also relinquish control of the game, letting the guest play the game for a 60-minute session without ever needing to buy the title. There is no cap on Share Play sessions, so the host can repeatedly use the feature to let friends continue playing.
Share Play, which was rolled out in version 2.0 of the console's software last month, not being supported in one of the year's biggest game releases is a black mark on Sony and the PlayStation 4. Just last week, Sony said the feature would be supported across all PS4 games, according to GameSpot. Now, it appears that's not the case.
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare launched on Monday to strong reviews and the typical excitement surrounding the popular game franchise. The first-person shooter puts gamers into a futuristic environment and offers a wide range of offline and online gaming opportunities. As in years past with other Call of Duty titles, Advanced Warfare is expected to be a big seller this holiday shopping season.
Neither Sony nor Activision, the game's publisher, immediately responded to a request for comment.
