Cutting-edge Announcement: PS5 and PS4 to Cease Content Sharing on X/Twitter – A Result of Sky-High API Pricing

Sony has recently announced that users of the PS5 and PS4 consoles will no longer be able to connect and share clips or images to X or Twitter. This feature, which has been removed, also includes the ability to view content on X through the console.

The change will take effect from November 13 onwards. While Sony has not provided a specific reason for cutting off the connection with X, it is speculated that it could be due to X’s pricey API, which was announced earlier this year with exorbitant costs. As a result, many apps and online services have decided to discontinue their connection with X, including Xbox, which made the announcement earlier this year. This means that only Nintendo Switch users will still be able to share content to X.

TLDR: Sony has disabled the ability for PS5 and PS4 users to connect and share content with X and Twitter. This change is effective from November 13 onwards. The reason for this removal is speculated to be the high cost of X’s API, leading to many apps and online services discontinuing their connection with X. Xbox has also made a similar decision. Only Nintendo Switch users will now be able to share content to X.
