PlayStation Vita Gets YouTube App Next Month

First look at Vita's new streaming video app.

 

PlayStation Vita's Nico Nico video app will be getting some company next month. Sony Computer Entertainment announced today that a YouTube app will be released for the system as a free download in late June.

The Vita YouTube app will have many of the viewing features YouTube users should be familiar with, including search, commenting, favorites, and access to your YouTube account. Sony provided a few screens showing the Vita interface:

YouTube joins Vita apps for such services as Skype, FourSquare and Twitter.

The Nico Nico video app was released by Niwango opposite the system's launch last year. Nico Nico has been updating its app periodically and will eventually enable uploads of gameplay footage and live video broadcasts.
