Sony has recently rolled out significant updates for both the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, enhancing user experience and system performance across the board.
For the PlayStation 5, the update version 25.02-11.00.00, weighing in at 1.3GB, brings several notable improvements. One of the key enhancements is the improved display of activities, now fully visible on cards while ensuring potential spoilers remain hidden. This makes it easier for players to engage with their games without unwanted surprises. Additionally, the update introduces support for Unicode 16.0 emojis, allowing users to express themselves more vividly in messages.
On the parental controls front, setting the restriction level to Late Teens or Older will now default Communication and User-Generated Content to Restrict. However, if you've previously set this level, your settings will remain unchanged and be labeled as Customize. Sony has also focused on improving system software performance and stability, alongside enhancing messages and usability on various screens.
Here are the detailed patch notes for PS5 update 25.02-11.00.00:
