PS4 may have ended Facebook support for the console

PS4 owners have seemingly been dealt a blow, as support for a popular feature may have been removed by Sony.

According to a new post on Reddit, Sony is about to end Facebook support on the PS4.

PlayStation Asia seemingly confirmed as much in a message to a user in need of assistance.

According to PlayStation Asia support, Facebook functionality will end on October 7.

Sony is yet to make an official announcement about ending Facebook support, and it's not clear if this will be a regional move or worldwide.

However, fellow PS4 owners have reported seeing error messages when trying to share on Facebook, so it looks like something is changing.

It's possible Facebook support will be removed as part of the changes coming with firmware update 7.00.

Firmware update 7.00 is tipped to launch later this month, although some fans have been testing the changes as part of a recent PS4 beta.
