Sony has deployed PS5 System Update 23.01-07.60.00, and the contents of this update won't come as much of a surprise.
Yet another PlayStation 5 firmware update, yet more system performance improvements. At least, that's what the official release notes for this new system update mention. Other than that, the release notes don't mention any other changes, although we're pretty sure that the update contains some under-the-hood changes that haven't been discovered just yet. We've included a shot of the patch notes for this update below. Since releasing this update, Sony has also updated its official PS5 support page with the notes.
PS5 System Update 23.01-07.60.00 Notes
This system software update improves system performance.The most recent major PS5 System Software update dates from March of this year, when Sony released PlayStation 5 system update 7.0 (23.01-07.00.00). This update introduced VRR support for 1440p displays, Discord Voice Chat support, and more. In addition, this update allowed users to more easily transfer data between PlayStation 5 consoles:
PS5 to PS5 Data Transfer. You can now easily transfer the data on your PS5 console, including games, saved data, user profiles, settings, screenshots, and videos, to another PS5 console using a local Wi-Fi network or a LAN cable. You can either transfer the data during the initial PS5 console setup or later from the settings menu. This process doesn’t remove or modify the data on your original PS5 console.Screen Reader Improvements. The screen reader now gives more detailed guidance when navigating the console. It will now tell you which direction you can move from the currently selected component, as well as your current position in a component with multiple items. Additionally, when using the screen reader to view web pages, you’ll now see borders around the section that’s being read aloud.Wireless Device Update for DualSense Wireless Controller. You can now update the DualSense wireless controller device software with a wireless connection. If you have trouble updating the device software wirelessly, connect your controller to your PS5 console using the USB cable to update it. You’ll be able to update wirelessly for the next update.The PlayStation 5 is available globally now. Sony launched its console back in November of 2020, and recent rumors suggest that Sony is planning to release an updated model of the console in the near future - interestingly, this updated model was first thought to be a slim version of the PlayStation 5, although the most recent rumors suggest that we're looking at an improved model with somewhat different dimensions.
