Simply use an HDMI cable to connect your PS4 to your TV. Plug one end into the PS4 and the other into an available HDMI port on your TV. While some offline gaming is possible, an Internet connection is required for online multiplayer, system updates, and downloading digital games. To play a game or watch a movie, simply insert the disc into the PS4 drive. You should also log into your streaming apps like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime.
