Sony Interactive Entertainment has released a new update for PS5 firmware (Version 23.01-07.20.00), as always mandatory to be able to connect the console to online functions. This update weighs 1,151 GB. As for what’s new, it’s not just about improving stability.
23.01-07.20.00 Update for PlayStation Firmware It deals with two components. The first is the usual improvement in the stability and performance of the PlayStation 5, which is absolutely inevitable with every update. The second is to improve messaging and the ability to use PS5 functions on “certain screens”. Unfortunately, we do not have more accurate details on this matter.
As usual, there might be some “hidden” updates On the PS5 firmware update, but for now all the information we have on version 23.01-07.20.00 is the one just indicated. In case of news of course, we will not fail to keep you updated.
At 1,151 GB it isn’t much weight and all users should be able to download the update quickly. We repeat that an update is mandatory to use the PS5’s online functions, whether that’s accessing the PS Store or playing online. If you plan to play a game online or download a new game that just released (like Horizon Forbidden West Burning Shores), remember to turn on your console a little earlier so you have time to download the update.
On the other hand, if you don’t have a PS5 yet, you can easily find it in online retail stores. By now the promoters have given up and started selling consoles at a huge discount.
