Sony has rolled out PS5 System update 21.02-04.02.00, improving the console’s system performance.

　　The new firmware update for Sony’s next-gen console weighs in at roughly 900MB and appears to be a minor one. Release notes are almost nonexistent and only mentioned improved system performance. No further details about the contents of this new system update have been shared, although we’re pretty sure that it packs some under-the-hood changes.

PS5 System Update 21.02-04.02.00 Release Notes

　　Back in July of this year, Sony announced that it had sold over 10 million PS5 consoles as of July 18, 2021, thereby becoming Sony's fastest-selling PlayStation console to date.

　　“I can’t express enough the deep gratitude we feel for our passionate community of PlayStation fans who have embraced PS5, and the world-class development and publishing partners who bring such incredible gaming experiences to our platforms,” said Jim Ryan, president and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment. “While PS5 has reached more households faster than any of our previous consoles, we still have a lot of work ahead of us as demand for PS5 continues to outstrip supply. I want gamers to know that while we continue to face unique challenges throughout the world that affect our industry and many others, improving inventory levels remains a top priority for SIE.”
