PS4 update

Update 5.0 for the PS4 is set to launch later this year, but details regarding the patch have recently surfaced. Eurogamer has apparently obtained a copy of the patch notes, and it details major changes to stream quality for those with the Pro console, as well as an updated follow system and new parental controls.

PS4 Pro Streamers will be happy with this update, as it will allow them to stream at 1080p/60fps. This is stream quality that lower-end PCs can’t handle, so this increases the PS4’s value to streamers.

After this update players will also be able to follow anyone’s account, unlike the current system. Right now, the only accounts you can follow are verified accounts, which are mostly made up by official game accounts, developers, and popular Youtubers. Sony looks to encourage more content sharing with this change, so it will be interesting to see players become popular through this platform. Players will be able to decide who can follow them, and they’ll also be able to block users from doing so.

The parental controls are also being updated. There can now be multiple adult accounts, and these can set parental locks on specific accounts so personalize the communications, content, and spending limit of each child. Adult accounts can send requests to other accounts on separate PS4s to join the same family. This comes paired with an app used to manage family accounts.

There are also some quality of life changes coming to the UI, as notifications can be viewed from the quick menu, as well as the status of uploads and downloads. Players will no longer need to return to the home menu for this information.

There is currently no set date for the 5.0 Update. Sony has yet to even fully release the patch notes, so there could be more changes waiting for players when they do. Check out the full Eurogamer leak here!

I play a lot of video games and watch a lot of cartoons. I'm probably complaining about Overwatch.

Dead Cells’ Return to Castlevania expansion, which came out a few weeks ago and is really good, is a great way to relive your childhood and enjoy a nostalgic distraction. A native PS5 physical release of the game is in the works, and it looks like we’ll be getting a bundle with both versions of the game.

Gematsu found a listing for “Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania Edition” on the ESRB website. It was rated T for Teen, which suggests that an announcement is coming soon.

After its initial 2018 release on PS4 to widespread acclaim, Dead Cells has received a steady stream of updates, and we think a bundled SKU including DualSense support and all the other PS5 bells and whistles would be awesome. What do you think of Return to Castlevania if you’ve been playing it?

Is Marvel’s Midnight Suns on the PlayStation 5 your curios? Over the weekend, anyone who wanted to could try out the tactical superhero game for free. Unfortunately, due to a few mistakes, it hasn’t been helping everyone. The good news is that this hiccup has been fixed, and the trial has been extended to make up for lost time:

As a result, until Thursday, March 30th, all PS5 owners can enjoy the game at no cost. You’ll have plenty of time to check it out after that.

Firaxis’ Marvel’s Midnight Suns gives familiar heroes and villains a fresh spin through the use of turn-based strategy and role-playing game elements. You’ll be able to hang out with Marvel’s Blade, Captain Marvel, and Wolverine when you’re not engaged in tactical battles. The game has its own style and is fun to play.

It’s also important to note that PS Plus Premium members can play the game for two hours for free. That’s why it’s not the end of the world if you can’t take advantage of this protracted trial period.

Will you be using this demo to check out Marvel’s Midnight Suns on the PS5?
