　　Now Playing: PS4 Firmware 6.0 Beta Invites Going Out - GS News Update

　　Whatever new features may be coming in this update will remain a mystery until Sony is ready to roll it out to the public, as beta testers are sworn to secrecy. The whole numbered updates tend to add significant features, though. The 5.00 system update, for example, added new family settings and child safety features, friends list and follower tweaks, messages and setting customization, and other various quality-of-life improvements.

　　Meanwhile, PlayStation recently announced its PS Plus offerings for August. Those include Mafia III and Dead by Daylight on PS4, Bound by Flame and Serious Sam 3: BFE on PS4, and Draw Slasher and Space Hulk on Vita.
