According to a tweet from gaming journalist Brad Douglas, Sony has confirmed that the PS4 is region free.

Here’s what he tweeted:

“SCEI PR tells me “no region locking”.

This is good news since the PS3 and PS Vita are also region free. People that like to import video games from overseas will love to hear this news.

It’s interesting to see how much features Sony is packing to the PS4 right now. It was reported a few weeks ago that Microsoft’s Xbox One console will still be region locked.

The PS4 will be out later this year for the price of $399.
