PS5 Beta Update Enhances User Experience with QoL Optimizations

Author : Joseph Dec 12,2024

Sony's latest PlayStation 5 beta update enhances the gaming experience with several quality-of-life improvements. This follows the recent URL-linking feature for game sessions, adding personalized 3D audio, refined Remote Play options, and adaptive controller charging.

The update introduces personalized 3D audio profiles, allowing users to tailor audio settings for their specific headphones or earbuds (like the Pulse Elite or Pulse Explore) via sound quality tests. This results in a more immersive soundscape, improving spatial awareness within games.

Remote Play functionality receives an upgrade, providing more granular control over who can access your PS5 remotely. Users can selectively grant or deny access to specific individuals via the system settings.

For owners of the slimmer PS5 model, adaptive charging for controllers is now available. This intelligently manages power consumption during rest mode, optimizing charging based on the controller's battery level and cutting power after a period of inactivity.

Currently, the beta is limited to select participants in the US, Canada, Japan, UK, Germany, and France. However, a global rollout is planned for the coming months. Invited users will receive an email with instructions. Sony emphasizes that features may change or be removed based on user feedback during this beta testing phase. The company values community input, highlighting its role in shaping past PS5 updates.

This beta follows the Version 24.05-09.60.00 update which introduced URL sharing for game sessions, simplifying the process of inviting others to join open sessions. The new beta builds upon this, furthering the enhancement of user experience and control.
