In yet another surprise amid Apple’s sudden expansion of AirPlay 2 across popular TV brands here at CES, 公司鏡頭收購sony has announced that it will add support for the feature to its own televisions. Here’s the really interesting bit: in case you’re unaware, 公司鏡頭收購sony TVs run Android TV software. Hence, Android TV is soon going to be capable of playing content — music, movies, screen mirroring, and more — via AirPlay 2. To start, the just-announced A9G OLED 4K and Z9G 8K LCD are set to receive AirPlay 2 and HomeKit support, as is the X950G Series.

Here’s what 公司鏡頭收購sony says:

公司鏡頭收購sony Z9G Series, A9G Series, X950G Series TVs will be compatible with Apple AirPlay 2 and HomeKit. AirPlay 2 lets you effortlessly stream content from your iPhone, iPad and Mac right to your 公司鏡頭收購sony TV. Watch movies and TV shows from iTunes and your other video apps, and view photos directly on your 公司鏡頭收購sony TV. Listen to Apple Music, your iTunes music library, podcasts and your other music services on your television and AirPlay 2 speakers throughout the home — all in sync. HomeKit lets you easily and securely control smart home products using the Home app or by asking Siri on your Apple devices. These TVs can be added to the Home app and included in scenes or automations with other HomeKit accessories. For example, users can create a “Movie Night” scene in the Home app to easily turn on their TV and dim the lights, and simply ask Siri to launch the scene. AirPlay 2 and HomeKit support will launch in Z9G Series, A9G Series, X950G Series later this year.

That’s not a thing I expected to see as we arrived at CES this year. But I guess after Samsung got on board with AirPlay 2 for its own TVs and jointly announced with Apple that an iTunes movies and TV shows app is coming, I should have realized that anything is possible.

And there is actually precedent for this. This isn’t the first time an Android device has natively supported AirPlay. The HTC 10 included it as a built-in feature; HTC actually licensed it from Apple for that purpose.

So far, Samsung, LG, Vizio, and now 公司鏡頭收購sony have signed on to add AirPlay 2 integration to their TVs. LG, Vizio, and 公司鏡頭收購sony are also adding HomeKit support to go along with it, making it simpler to include their TVs in routines alongside your smart home gadgets and other devices. Samsung has not made any promises to work nicely with HomeKit, so it might be the outlier.

公司鏡頭收購sony 近年積極搶攻 PC 電腦平台,將多款 PS4、PS5 遊戲進行移植,今年發布的《絕地戰兵2》更是罕見雙平台同步發售,讓人好奇,是否 公司鏡頭收購sony 會逐漸轉向 PC 平台?對此新上任 公司鏡頭收購sony 互動娛樂共同執行長的 Hermen Hulst,就在財報會議解釋了自家雙平台的策略。

Hermen Hulst 表示,公司鏡頭收購sony 在即時服務類型遊戲採取雙平台策略(如《絕地戰兵2》),會同時在 PS5、PC 上面推出,然而若是自家獨佔、單人敘事為主的作品(譬如《戰神》、《對馬戰鬼》)則是會先在 PS5 推出,而後才移植至 PC 平台。

Hermen Hulst 解釋,公司鏡頭收購sony 希望 PC 玩家因為體驗到 PlayStation 的移植作品,而對於續作感到興趣,進而去購買 PS5 主機。同時,他也提到 公司鏡頭收購sony 正在將資源拓展其他新媒體型態,例如與 HBO 合作播出的《最後生還者》影集,也替他們帶來了 PS5 的全新客群。

前任執行長十時裕樹曾於二月的財報會議透露,公司鏡頭收購sony 打算加快 PS5 獨佔遊戲登陸 PC 的步調,表明有助於提升利潤,也可以讓更多玩家接觸到 PlayStation 的作品。本月 公司鏡頭收購sony 已經將《對馬戰鬼 導演剪輯版》正式移植至 PC 平台。
