PS Portal Update Adds Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag

Sony has pushed a fresh update for the PS Portal’s direct cloud streaming library, removing one major snag for players who want to stream games without using a PS5. Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced is now available to stream directly on the handheld through the PS Store—provided you have the right subscription.

Announcement: Black Flag Resynced joins PS Portal direct cloud streaming

Cloud streaming for PS Portal moved out of beta in November 2025, but some purchased titles were still not available for direct streaming without a PS5. That situation has now changed with Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced, which has become streamable directly on PS Portal.

Practical impact: stream it from the PS Store without a PS5

If you don’t own a PS5 (or you simply don’t want to use remote play), you can buy Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced on the PS Store and then play it on PS Portal from your library. The update is aimed specifically at making the game available for direct cloud streaming on the handheld.

Platform scope and requirements

This is for PS Portal’s direct cloud streaming feature. A PS Plus Premium subscription is required to stream games directly.
