Sony recently pushed a new version of the system to PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. After the upgrade, players can create or join public or private parties. At the same time, PS5 also improves the app UI and adds new features such as headset mono and English voice commands. It is worth mentioning that Sony also took this opportunity to predict that the PS5 will support Variable Update Rate (VRR) in the coming months. When used with HDMI 2.1 TVs and monitors, players will be able to get a smoother visual experience. Even PS5 games that have already been released can perfectly take advantage of variable update rates as long as they are updated through patches.
However, with the launch of the new version of the system, many players have encountered problems that PSN, PS Plus, and PS Now cannot be used normally. And its scope extends beyond PS5 and PS4, PS3, PS Vita and some web services are not immune. Sony is aware of the matter, but has yet to provide a solution. If you haven’t updated but will use the services mentioned above, it’s best to wait and see.
