Xperia Play owners disappointed at the lack of HD video recording on their shiny Android handsets will rejoice at the news that an incoming 2.3.4 update will bless their devices with 720p video recording capabilities.

Xperia blog has reported that the Play will also receive the option to enable/disable the auto brightness feature, which should satisfy the control freaks out there, while a revealing tweet has revealed an October release for the update, so not too long to wait before some pocketable HD-recording goodness heads for mobile gamers everywhere.
