Sony’s console is about to pull out all the stops with a major system update, but before that it will go through a beta phase.

The PS5 is regularly updated and optimized little by little. Soon, without precise date, Sony will put online a major upgrade for its PS5 system and many new options are to come. But for now, only test program participants are affected.

An XXL update: game list, new display, etc.

With these new additions, Sony intends to improve the user experience by making navigation more fluid, but also by offering new options. For example, it will soon be possible to opt for a display in 1440p native, or enjoy a better anti-aliasing with the oversampling, create lists of games or quickly join his friends in gameA whole program.
