That's You!, as with all titles on Sony's PlayLink range, allows 2-6 players to use their phones and tablet devices as controllers via a companion app. This connects to the PlayStation 4 through the host Wi-Fi network. That's You is hosted by a southern American narrator, who takes the group through a succession of themed social situations. These ask the players questions and set them challenges to find out how well they know one another. During the game's set-up players are asked to choose a playing card based on Jungian archetypes. and take a selfie, to which numerous filters can be applied. The selfies can be retaken at any point and form an integral part of the gameplay. To score, players must vote on who they think best answers the question through secret ballots on their phones. As the questions are subjective and there is no correct answer, points are awarded by voting consensus, with the scores increasing relative to the number of players in agreement. The game then elaborates by focusing on a selected individual and getting the players to draw, write, and perform challenges based on their knowledge of them. These rounds are similarly scored by consensus.

The That’s You! app features a standalone multiplayer Pass It On game, similar to the Final Game, in which a player is asked to take a selfie and embellish it using the app's art tools, according to a set challenge. After 10 seconds they are prompted to hand the device over to another player to further embellish or undermine. The device is exchanged until the picture is considered complete.

Players can create their own content for That’s You!, with the option of either writing their own Question Game text questions, or completing an app-based picture challenge, which the game then converts into a photo-based Question Game asset.

The game won the award for "Casual/Social Game" at The Independent Game Developers' Association Awards 2017, whereas its other nominations were for "Game by a Small Studio" and the "Creativity and Heritage Award". It was also nominated for "Best Family/Social Game" at the 2017 Game Critics Awards, and for "Gameplay Innovation" at the 2018 Develop Awards.
