ps5 slim gets its first exclusive feature from 2020 reveal

Jul 25, 2024 10:02 AM

Sony has rolled out a new PlayStation 5 firmware beta update featuring three key enhancements. The primary highlight is the introduction of custom 3D audio profiles, allowing users to create personalized sound settings through sound tests. This update also introduces adaptive controller charging for the new slimmer PS5 models (CFI-2000), optimizing power usage by adjusting supply based on battery levels. Additionally, Remote Play receives new settings adjustments, enabling users to customize game streaming options and control connectivity.

How can I create custom 3D audio profiles on my PS5?

The new PS5 firmware beta allows you to create custom 3D audio profiles by running sound tests through your console. You can use headphones or earbuds, such as Sony’s Pulse Elite wireless headset or Pulse Explore wireless earbuds, to set up your personalized audio experience.

This update is a nod to the promises made by Mark Cerny at the PlayStation 5 reveal, highlighting the console's advanced 3D audio capabilities. While initially mentioned that users might send pictures of their ears for customized audio profiles, the current method uses sound tests to achieve a similar personalized audio setting, enhancing the gaming immersion for individual users.
