Sony has recently rolled out significant updates for both the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, enhancing user experience and system performance across the board.
For PS5 users, update 25.02-11.00.00, a 1.3GB download, brings several improvements. One of the key enhancements is to the activities feature, where activity details are now fully displayed on cards, while still keeping potential spoilers hidden for a seamless gaming experience. Additionally, this update introduces support for Unicode 16.0 emojis, allowing for more expressive communication within messages. There are also changes to parental controls; setting the restriction level to Late Teens or Older will now default Communication and User-Generated Content to Restrict, although previous settings at this level will remain as Customize. Overall, the update bolsters system software performance and stability and improves messages and usability on various screens.
Here are the patch notes for the PS5 update 25.02-11.00.00:
