PS4 is finally getting a dedicated media remote

The long wait for an official PS3-style dedicated PS4 media remote appears to be nearing an end.

GameSpot spotted a couple of listings for an officially licensed remote from PDP, which is due for a US release in October priced at $30.

Like the PS3 model that came before it, the device works via Bluetooth. It will also work with up to three other devices including compatible TVs, set-top boxes and audio devices. It does, however, feature some PlayStation-specific branding.

Controls include a power button, Share button and all the usual Blu-ray playback controls. The DualShock 4 face buttons are all present and correct, although there don’t appear to be any shoulder button equivalents.
