For those that want 3D Blu-ray playback on their PS4, you may have to wait longer for that feature to be implemented.
A fan asked Sony President Shuhei Yoshida on twitter if 3D Blu-ray playback will be added to the PS4 soon. Yoshida replied with: “ Sorry, we do not know yet“.
Personally, I think this is odd considering 3D Blu-ray playback was included on the PS3 a couple of years ago. You would think a new device like the PS4 would already have that feature.
Still, it seems 3D isn’t so popular anymore anyway. The Xbox One lacks 3D Blu-ray support too and many TVs shown at this year’s CES Show had no 3D capabilities either…

January 22, 2014 at 2:47 PMSony is being so frustrating on this. Many consumers like me DID buy 3D TVs and there are many excellent 3D Blu-Rays now available that we can’t play on the PS4. Remember, Blu-Ray was a Sony format first and Sony pushed hard for the Blu-Ray 3D format. Now that they’ve won that battle, they aren’t supporting their own format. As a movie consumer, this leaves a very bad taste in my mouth. At least Microsoft can use the excuse that this is the first time they’ve supported Blu-Ray. Sony has no excuse at all here.
Sony – nobody is saying they want the PS4 to become a media center like the XB1 is trying to be, but to not support your OWN Blu-Ray 3D movies, and your OWN Bluetooth remote controller on your flagship hardware is really unexcusable. Please at least bring the PS4 movie support up to the point where the LAST generation system was two years ago!
