New PS5 System Update Released With Patch Notes

As a dedicated gamer with years of experience under my belt, I’ve grown accustomed to eagerly anticipating each new PlayStation update, hoping for significant improvements and exciting new features. However, this time around, Sony’s latest PS5 firmware update, version 24.05-09.60.00, doesn’t exactly live up to my lofty expectations. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the convenience of being able to generate URLs for easier access to gaming sessions and the addition of voice command options for opening “Game Help” sections. These are undeniably useful quality-of-life improvements that enhance the overall gaming experience.


Today, Sony rolled out a fresh update for PlayStation 5 consoles in 2024. Previously, Sony hadn’t unveiled significant upgrades for the PS5 platform, although regular console updates had been consistently released. The new features didn’t fundamentally alter how the system functioned. However, with this latest PS5 update, users will appreciate some practical enhancements to their gaming experience.

I’m excited to share that as of now, I can download and install PS5 firmware version 24.05-09.60.00. This update brings two significant improvements that Sony has introduced. Primarily, it allows me to effortlessly generate a new URL for my gaming sessions. To access this feature, I simply need to select the “Share Link” option on a game’s tile and then scan the QR code that appears. With this new functionality, inviting friends to join me in my games is more convenient than ever!

Beyond this, Sony has introduced fresh voice command features for the PS5. Users are now able to access the “Game Help” feature of different games by simply using their voices. Moreover, the latest PS5 update enhances the console and DualSense controller’s performance, a common improvement in most new updates.

For a comprehensive understanding of the recent PS5 update changes, kindly refer to the detailed patch notes provided beneath this message.
