00:00PS Portal players are using the handheld for couch co-op with a simple trick that we didn't

00:09think of before.

00:10Those with a PS Plus Premium Membership can now turn every online co-op game into local

00:15co-op thanks to direct cloud streaming, which just left beta.

00:19Online games can be turned into a couch co-op game with PS Portal and a PS5.

00:24As highlighted by Reddit user Suzuki, a PS5 user can download a game on the console and

00:29let their co-op partner sign in with their PSN account to access the game.

00:34Then, the player with a PS Plus Premium Membership can cloud stream the same game on their PS Portal.

00:39Yes, this means only one person needs a Premium Membership, and a single copy of a game will

00:44do.

00:45This way, both players can partner up in virtually any multiplayer or online co-op game but in

00:50the same vicinity, one with a portal and the other with a DualSense controller in their hand.

00:55Frankly I didn't think of this before until I saw this Reddit post and I'll certainly be

00:58trying this out myself.

01:00The only issue I can think of is a potential lag for the user who's cloud streaming but

01:03it shouldn't be a huge problem.
