The PS5 is still updating with the new firmware 24.03-09.20.00 which adds new features to help players who need them.
The PS5 has seen some great developments very recently with update 24.02-09.00.00.45-00.00.00.0.1. The sound emanating from the DualSense speaker is louder with a better balance between sound effects and voices. Likewise, controller mic capture has made progress thanks to improved noise cancellation, via AI. The brightness of the console’s power signal can now be adjusted, not turned off, but the biggest change is in Screen Sharing. Now, you can more precisely support a friend in difficulty in a game by directly acting on the broadcast of their game with visual interactions. Discover the new changes available on PS5.
Details of the PS5 update for April 24, 2024
The new PS5 firmware updates for March 2024 were quite important. And this is not systematically the case, quite the contrary. It is very often the opposite since updates generally simply improve the performance and stability of the console’s operating system. Is this still true with the new version 24.03-09.20.00 of the PS5 software? Yes, but that’s not all there is to it. The firmware which still weighs 1.187 GB also provides features.
These real new features mainly concern Game Help. A new feature available integrated into the PS5 interface in order to receive advice on completing certain objectives for example. The other notable change is the ability to hide the slightly annoying “Connected Remote Reading” message. Useful for those who have fallen for the PlayStation Portal.
