Retrogamer has been sharing tips and tutorials on how to use unity for PS4, for those who want to tread that path… Due to the lack of filesystem integration, the developer has included a sample game in his release. Because of this, from a copyright perspective, I choose to not point you to the source of the information or any download links.
