14 Dec 2010

RTÉ Player is available from today onwards on Sony PlayStation 3 consoles. Registered PlayStation Network users can now access it from the XMB (XcrossMediaBar).

Arriving on PS3 consoles just in time for the Christmas season, RTÉ Player lets users watch shows from RTÉ One and RTÉ Two for free up to 21 days after they’ve aired.

The service is now optimised for larger screens and is available from today on the XMB (XcrossMediaBar) in the PlayStation 3 console.

“The availability of RTÉ Player on the PlayStation 3 adds even more entertainment to the console and gives people yet another reason to enjoy the PS3,” said Niall O’Hanrahan, managing director, Sony Computer Entertainment Ireland.

Yesterday, it was announced that ITV and Channel 4 would be available on PlayStation 3 consoles.
