PS5 System Software v2.0-06.00.00 (Beta)

August 8th, 2022 / Niraj Shah / PS5 Firmware
0

PS5 Firmware Beta v2.0-06.00.00 went into beta testing towards the end of last month, adding a number of new features and improvements to the PS5, including support for 1440p resolution and custom gamelists (folders) to organise your games. We now have the full release notes from the new beta.

The new firmware update likely won’t be released to the public for at least a few weeks, although Sony says the update will be release later this year. You can check out the release notes for the upcoming update below, but note that these may change before the final version.

Version Beta v2.0-06.00.00 Release Notes

  • In [Game Library], you can now create custom gamelists to better organise your games.
    • You can create your gamelists within the Game Library by selecting the [Your Collection] tab. Select games to add to your gamelist and then decide what to name it.
  • We’ve updated the following for the Game Help feature:
    • Game Help now informs you when there’s help available, on both PS5 and mobile via PlayStation App.
    • You can adjust whether the Game Help notifications are displayed. On PS5, select [Settings] > [Notifications] > [Game Help]. On PlayStation App, select [Settings] > [Push Notifications] > [Game Help].
  • 1440p HDMI output is now supported.
    • Before use, run a test to see if your HDMI device supports 1440p output by going to [Settings] > [Screen and Video] > [Video Output] > [Test 1440p Output].
  • We’ve updated the following in [Game Base]:
    • You can now request party members to start Share Screen to watch their gameplay. Go to voice chart card, select the party member you want to send the request to and then select [Request Share Screen].
    • When you join a party, a party member is playing a game that you can join, you’ll now receive a notification. You can join the game directly from the notification.
    • When you receive a message, you can now view the send’s profile by selecting the message and pressing the options button.
  • We’ve updated the following for [Friend Requests]:
    • When you accept a friend request in the [Received] list, you can now view your new friend’s profile in [Accepted Requests].
    • In the Game Base card, you ca now send stickers and voice messages to your groups.
  • The following features are added to game hubs:
    • In-progress activities can now be shown prominently at the top of the game hub to make it as easy and as fast as possible to get back to where you left off.
    • If Game Help is available for an activity, the [View Hints] button will appear.
    • In the [Videos based on your recent gameplay] section, you’ll see labels for why the videos are recommended for you, such as “Fast Play”, “High Score” or “Top Performance”.
  • While using the web browser, you can now select between two types of zoom functions.
    • “Zoom” lets you increase the size of the elements on the page while adjusting their layout so everything fits without having to scroll left and right.
    • “Magnify” increases the size of everything on the page without layout adjustments.
    • The maximum zoom/magnification rate is no 500%.
  • We’ve reorganised the 3D audio settings.
    • These settings are now under [3D Audio for TV Speakers] and [3D Audio for Headphones] in [Settings] > [Sound].
    • You can now listen and compare the difference between 3D and stereo audio on the same screen.
  • Voice Command now supports searching for content in YouTube using voice.
    • From anywhere on the PS5, including during gameplay, you can say “Hey PlayStation, search for [keyword] to Youtube.” The YouTube app will open and relevant search results will be shown.
    • Currently, Voice Command (Preview) is only available in English for players with PSN accounts in the US and UK.
  • The way you enter text using voice input has changes.
    • Previously, if you had the screen reader turned on, you had to wait for the instructions to be read aloud before speaking into the controller to enter text using voice input. Now, you can skip the instructions by pressing X.
  • The following improvements have been added to the screen reader feature:
    • When the controller button shortcuts for on-screen buttons are displayed, the screen reader now reads them aloud.
  • Custom button assignments are now enabled in the passcode input screen.
  • We’ve updated the DualSense wireless controller device software to improve stability.
