Speaking to Joystiq, Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida revealed that the PlayStation 4 will output video in 4K, but not games.

The PlayStation 4 supports 4K resolution output, Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida just told us – but only for video that was recorded in the format. He clarified that games do not play in 4K.

On the upside, that means you don't have to go buy a 4K television yet. On the ... other upside, it prevented Sony from calling the thing "PlayStation 4K."
