The Playroom is a video game developed by Japan Studio's Team Asobi division and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 4. It is a collection of augmented reality mini-games meant to demonstrate the use of the PlayStation Camera and the DualShock 4 controller and comes preloaded with all PlayStation 4 consoles. The PlayStation Camera accessory is required to play The Playroom. If a camera is not present, a trailer for The Playroom will be displayed instead of the full game. Firesprite, a studio founded by former employees of Studio Liverpool, worked on the visuals of The Playroom. Downloadable content is free.

Despite not being mentioned on the PlayStation 5 incompatibility list, The Playroom is not playable on the PS5, therefore being a PlayStation 4 exclusive.
