The PlayStation Portal's cloud streaming feature is leaving beta, and it's already proved to be a popular option among its PlayStation Plus Premium subscriber testers.

That's according to Takuro Fushimi, Senior Manager, Product Management, who spoke with TechRadar Gaming and shed some light on the PS Portal's latest update, which will introduce cloud streaming for all PlayStation Plus Premium members, along with a host of new enhancements.

"I can tell you that one in five PS portal owners have already tried cloud game streaming, the beta version already for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers, especially, [the] adoption rate is a much higher," Fushimi shared.

"Seven out of 10 Premium Portal owners are already streaming as we speak now."

Cloud streaming will allow PlayStation Plus Premium members to stream select digital PS5 games from their own libary, including titles like Astro Bot, Borderlands 4, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Fortnite, Ghost of Yōtei, Grand Theft Auto 5, and Resident Evil 4.

Members will also be able to play compatible games from the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog and Classics Catalog, like Cyberpunk 2077, God of War Ragnarok, The Last of Us Part II Remastered, and more.

For now, this feature is only available for Premium members, and when asked if it will be made available to more PS Plus tiers, like Essential and Extra, in the future, Fushimi couldn't confirm.
