Can I Stream TV on a PS5?
Yes, you can stream TV on a PS5. The PS5 supports a range of streaming apps, so you can watch TV, movies, and other video content right from the console. In many cases, it works a lot like using a Roku, Fire TV, or smart TV app.
The Short Answer
- Yes, the PS5 supports streaming TV apps
- You can download supported video apps from the Media section
- Some services also work through a web app, including CUE
How It Works
On PS5, you can install supported streaming apps and watch directly from the console.
PlayStation lists entertainment apps like YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, and ESPN as available on PS5. You can also go to the Media area on the console and download apps from there.
What About CUE?
Yes, you can use CUE on PS5 with the CUE web app.
That is useful if the service you want does not have a dedicated PS5 app. In that case, using the web app can still get the job done.
Best Simple Answer
Yes, you can stream TV on a PS5. If your service has a PS5 app, install it from the Media section. If not, a web-based option like the CUE web app may still let you watch on your PS5.
