Sony has not long made a pretty major system software update for PS5, adding support for Discord voice calls among many other improvements. Since then, it's released a smaller update (with everyone's favourite patch note), and now, the platform holder has just pushed out another one. What's this one all about, then?

Well, the truth is we don't really know. Usually, you can view the patch notes for each firmware update before you go ahead and install them. Strangely, this one doesn't have that option at all. The 834MB patch is presumably a very minor one, then, if we're not even getting the "improves system software performance" message.

It's likely to be an update to plug gaps in security, or fix a couple of pesky bugs. If we're able to dig up any official word on what the patch does, we'll update the article. For now, though, you can download and install this update now to make sure your PS5 is squeaky clean.
