2025 looks set to see regular firmware updates for the PlayStation 5 from Sony, suggesting a continued focus on improving the platform this year. The past year has been significant for the PS5 with notable console and dashboard modifications, as well as the release of the enhanced PS5 Pro towards the end of 2024. It appears that Sony aims to carry this wave of innovation into 2025.
In a conversation with Game File, Sony has revealed its intention to accelerate the rate at which it releases updates for the PS5, contrasting with the previous approach of two major annual updates in March and September. Instead, Sony aims to quicken the pace at which they deliver firmware updates, encompassing not just minor tweaks focused on enhancing “system software performance and reliability”, but also significant ones introducing new features for the PS5. For example, the “Welcome Hub” feature, introduced last year, falls under this category.
One reason Sony is speeding up its process now is that it has recently improved its capabilities to do so. Sony explains that they’ve made improvements to the backend of the PS5, enabling the consoles to receive updates more quickly without needing downloads. This is what allowed Sony to release their lineup of 30th Anniversary themes for the PS5 last month, which was a way to commemorate PlayStation’s rich history.
In the future, it’s uncertain what new developments we might see for the PS5 from Sony. Although the console is popular among PlayStation enthusiasts, many users have been asking for a return of customization options like themes and folders, which were highly appreciated on the PS4. So far, Sony has given no signs that they will fulfill these repeated requests, but maybe they will consider it in 2025.
