There's nothing like a firmware update to get your Wednesday off to a good start. Sony has just pushed out a new system software update for PS5, weighing in at approximately 1.2GB. This is available to download and install now, bringing PS5's software up to version 23.02-08.20.00. So, what does it do?
Actually, more than your typical stability update. Included in this firmware update are a few small tweaks. Here are the patch notes:
  • Music in the control centre is now much easier to use. With its two-column layout, you can easily browse various categories, playlists and songs.
  • You can avoid unintentionally broadcasting your surroundings while broadcasting games with your PlayStation VR2.
    • Go to Settings > Accessories > PlayStation VR2, and turn on Block See-Through View on TV to prevent the camera see-through image from being displayed on your TV while using your PSVR2.
  • If you say "What's new?" via Voice Command on any screen, you can now check for new PS5 features.
    • Currently, Voice Command (Preview) is only available in English for players with accounts for PlayStation Network in the US and UK.
  • We've improved the messages and usability on some screens.

Hopefully we get a bug report thread on this. I recommend "Buggiest Playstation firmware update in history" as a thread title if anyone wants to pick up the slack for me. Thanks.
