Sony has rolled out new updates for the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, enhancing user experience and system performance.
The PS5 update, tagged as version 25.02-11.00.00 and weighing in at 1.3GB, brings several key improvements. One of the highlights is the enhancement of activities, where details are now fully displayed on cards, with potential spoilers cleverly hidden to keep the surprises intact. Additionally, the update introduces support for Unicode 16.0 emojis, enriching the messaging experience. On the parental controls front, setting the restriction level to Late Teens or Older will now automatically set Communication and User-Generated Content to Restrict, though previous settings will remain unchanged and labeled as Customize. As always, the update also bolsters the system software's performance and stability, alongside improving messages and usability on various screens.
Here are the detailed patch notes for the PS5 update 25.02-11.00.00:
