The online store will be available to Australia and New Zealand users and will also be available in 15 European countries.
Users will be able to download games, add-ons, themes, movies and television shows directly to their PS3 and PS Vita gaming systems.
Video content can be viewed on Windows PCs and is only available in Australia, Great Britain, France, Germany, Spain and Italy.

The company also sold its 70 millionth PS3 console in November, a major milestone for the game console.
