"PlayStation 4 users will be able to stream to Twitch, the biggest game livestreaming network, with one button press, Sony announced Tuesday.\nThe PlayStation 4's \"Share\" button, located on the DualShock 4 controller, was a heavily touted feature when the console was announced in February. Sony said players would be able to share their live gameplay to Ustream without interrupting play. Now Sony has added the same integration to players' Twitch accounts.\nSee also: Twitch Aims to Be 'Ubiquitous' Tool for Gaming Broadcasts\n\"Social capabilities are an integral part of PS4, so Twitch will play an important role in delivering a compelling connected experience to PlayStation fans,\" said Shuhei Yoshida, President of Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios. \"Twitch's gamer-focused community combined with our strong portfolio of innovative PS4 titles, will help define next generation gameplay and community engagement.\"\nTwitch, which launched two years ago as an arm of JustinTV, has grown into the biggest game streaming service online. The company said it gets 38 million unique viewers and has 600,000 unique streams per month. \n\"It's a foregone conclusion that there is desire and demand for regular gaming consumers to want to do this sort of thing,\" Matthew DiPietro, Twitch VP of Marketing, told Mashable. \"We'll be able to put broadcasting hardware in so many American households that it's hard to wrap your head around.\"\nThe Xbox One will also include one-click streaming to Twitch; a partnership that was announced at E3. With so many more people potentially on the service by the end of the year, DiPietro said Twitch is focusing all its development on hardware that allows it to quickly ingest and serve video. The company recently announced a $15 million round of funding to aid in this endeavor.\nImage: Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
