A newPlayStation 5update is now rolling out to consoles globally with a focus on improving performance.
Sonyconfirmed the new update – known as version 22.02-06.00.01 – is now making its way to PS5 owners with system software set to be approximately 1.08GB in size. This should automatically appear once you next boot up the console. If not, head to the settings menu, then System and finally System Software Console Information where you can confirm if the latest update has been added.
Last month, Sony began rolling out1440p HDMI video output supportfollowing months of beta testing. The games maker also added “several highly-requested features” such as game lists, 3D audio and stereo comparison and the ability to request a Share Screen from a fellow party member.
Sony further confirmed thatPlayStation Starsis now available in Asia and North America with Europe and the rest of the world to follow on October 13th, 2022. The controversial PS5 and PS4 “loyalty programme” lets players earn points that equate to real cash value and collect digital trophies, though the company stronglydeniedthey were NFT-related.
In September, Sony also launched the remake ofThe Last of Usexclusively on PS5. T3’s review stated that: “The Last of Us remains one of the best games of the last decade. It’s essential for anyone that hasn’t experienced Joel and Ellie’s story before, however, returning players will find little incentive in the PS5 remake, aside from the graphical upgrade.”
