PlayStation 5 Update 25.01-10.60.00 Rolls Out with Performance Boost and Usability Enhancements
The previous major version of PlayStation 5 system software, 24.06, launched last September and added multiple major features. A particularly major addition was the Welcome Hub, which created a customizable real estate on the console’s home screen. This center lets users place a variety of different widgets, including one for the battery level of connected accessories and the current console storage status. Additionally, with this feature added, it became a lot more convenient for players to get relevant important info in just a glance.
The 24.06 update also included a slew of personalized 3D audio profiles, improvements to Remote Play, and additional enhancements alongside the Welcome hub. One part of the September update was the under-the-hood changes, which impacted some games. We even had a minor update for this patch to fix problems in Final Fantasy XVI for example. In general, the 24.06 update was really a system change that made it way more functional and user-friendly.
Though today’s update suggests a relatively minor revision compared with the sea of changes we saw last month (and just this week), the gradual advances underscore PlayStation’s commitment to making the PlayStation 5 experience as seamless as possible for the people using one. Players are directed to the official PlayStation website for in-depth coverage of the 25.01-10.60.00 update. Even though this is not the largest update there is, it still proves that Microsoft is constantly working on improving and fine-tuning the system as time goes on.
