PS5 System Software Beta Update Supports 1440p Gaming

A new PS5 software update allows beta testers to thrust into 1440p gaming and experience other stuff such as Gamelists and improved Social features. The crispy clean and high-quality resolution is slowly coming to make things look more compelling. Keep in mind that this is only available for Beta Testers, which are chosen by invitation. Only a number of countries are eligible to participate in it. Nevertheless, this update is entuned to roll out and become accessible to the whole community later this year.

This update will also introduce new social features that will enhance and allow screen sharing, game notifications, inspecting friends’ profiles, and improved communication that allows players to send stickers and voice messages in Game Base.

“Today, we are rolling out a new PS5 system software beta that includes 1440p support, gamelists, and additional updates to enhance your gaming experiences and make connecting with friends easier on PS5.” – said Sony in the latest PlayStation blog post.
