Sony announced today that SingStar is coming to the PlayStation 4 later this year.
Over on the PlayStation Blog, SingStar game director Chris Bruce revealed SingStar is coming to Sony’s newest console, along with the news of a SingStar app that allows people to use their smartphones (and tablets) as a microphone. As such, a separate microphone won’t be needed to play SingStar, with the app available on smartphones and tablets and compatible with PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.

Bruce also talked about what players can expect in the future with SingStar. “We’re … working hard to optimize the social experience of SingStar by making it even easier to share the best bits of your night on Twitter and Facebook straight from the game,” he wrote. “With an improved scoring system, you can also build up your XP and get rewarded for game activity or challenge your friends online and entertain them with your renditions of your favorite songs.”
Today marks the 10-year anniversary of the SingStar franchise, which has sold 26 million copies worldwide. Bruce promises more details about SingStar to come in the months ahead, but for now, there isn’t a release date for the PlayStation 4 edition.
