Some users have started to notice an option to install Apple Music on their PS5 consoles, marking the first time that the service will be available on any console.

And HOLYWARS1990 isn’t the only person to have seen this new revelation. Upon finding the Reddit thread, Eurogamer was able to recreate the same option when creating their own new account.
