PS4 Updates

PlayStation 4 owners may have been pre-occupied with the announcement of the Gran Turismo Sport beta yesterday, but there was more good news out of the Sony camp: the 4.50 software update has been rolled out across the network for all players.

The closed beta for the latest PlayStation 4 update (v4.50) comes with a much-requested feature for PS4 Pro owners. Labeled “Boost Mode”, this feature (when enabled in the settings) allows games that haven’t receive a PS4 Pro compatibility update to now utilize the Pro’s improved hardware for better performance.

A key aspect to running any profitable business is keeping your customers happy and Sony knows all about this when it comes to firmware updates for its highly successful console.

If you were an early adopter and have been enjoying the PlayStation 4 since launch or sometime shortly thereafter, chances are the contents of the 3.50 update won’t come as much of a surprise to you. For those sitting idly by waiting for the opportune moment to pounce on the purchase, even in wake of the controversial heavily-rumored “PS4K,” the first major firmware update of the year introduces a feature that’s sure to pique your interest: PC Remote Play.
