Sony says when users buy titles through smartphone app, PlayStation 4 will automatically wake up to initiate downloads.

The PlayStation 4 can be turned on remotely via the Playstation smartphone app to begin content downloads, Sony has confirmed.

Sony's president of Worldwide Studios Shuhei Yoshida announced the news on Twitter recently.
