Your PS4 serves as a multi-purpose entertainment device. Make the best use of it and watch Oscars on PS4 live!

Watch Oscars on PS4

The official broadcaster for Oscars 2022 is ABC. The downside though is that it ABC is an American channel that caters to the US audience; that too in only certain regions. It is also necessary for such audience to have an active paid ABC account. If you are outside those regions, or outside the US altogether, you can still watch it on PS4 anyway with the 9Now app.

Get FastestVPN

9Now is a streaming service of Nine Network which is an Australian channel. The flipside is that the streaming is only available to those situated in Australia. So if you are outside US and Australia both, you can get rid of this restriction. What a PS4 user needs to do is use a reliable VPN – FastestVPN. This will enable them to enjoy Oscars on PS4.
