Unity 4 and PS4 Self Publishing - Any details from unity or sony?

So, Sony has won console wars, and offers indie's self publishing. So is Unity going to release an update to Unity 4 Pro, to allow the game to be ported to PS4? I am dying to get in on this amazing opportunity. Hopefully Unity doesn't charge extra (past Pro price) to do so.

I know you can purchase a PS3 Dev licence from Unity, but I thought it was because you have to get approved for publish before? But now, sounds like it anyone can put up a game, sort of like an App store. But I don't know. $$anonymous$$y point is though, IF publishing to PS4 is going to be free, is Unity going to make it free on their end for Pro Users?

me too, and it would be to the benifit of everyone; Indie devs, UT, and players. Tons of free/cheap/awesome games for people to play on PS4, created on Unity. It would reel in buisnes for UT for sure.

Ive been reading and it seems publishing costs on consoles are something we're not supposed to talk about... Why is that? Is that why I got downvoted? I would love to publish on PS4 soon, but doing so seems like a mysterious process. With the PS4 market, I think Unity dev's could really take advantage.
