[MUSIC PLAYING] Sony is back with their most impressive game console yet-- the PS4. Setting up a brand new console can be satisfying and challenging. Let me explain the process so that you're up and running in no time.
Plug-in your console and connect the included HDMI cable. For the fastest gaming experience, we recommend hard-wiring your PlayStation to your router or modem. To do this, you'll need an ethernet cable, which isn't included in the box. Turn the TV on and follow the on-screen setup prompts.
Next, you need to pair the controller with the console. Use the USB cable to connect them, then press the PS button on the controller. Voila! They're paired and ready to go.
Create a PlayStation network account and navigate through the setup process, including your username, password, and birthday. Take a few minutes to download and install any updates. The console will guide you through the steps.
Once setup is complete, you can download some of your favorite apps and games. If you're interested in online multiplayer gaming, you'll need to subscribe to a PlayStation Now membership. To learn about this cool option and get the most out of your new PlayStation, visit playstation.com.
And if you plan on transporting your console, keep the packaging material to use as a carrying case. Thanks for taking the time to watch this video. If you need more help, we are here for you 24/7. Visit geeksquad.com, call us at 1-800-GEEKSQUAD, or visit us at a Best Buy store.
