Today on the PlayStation blog, Sony's Scott McCarthy announced that the PS4 update 1.70 "will be available soon," and that with it will come the SHAREfactory video editor, among other features, allowing gamers to edit their gameplay videos. We've a video of the feature available after the jump.

The SHAREfactory video editor allows gamers to apply filters, themes, and transition effects to their clips, as well as adding stickers, text, and audio tracks from a set that is included. It is also possible to add picture-in-picture commentary via PlayStation Camera.
