Sony has announced that it is pushing out the PS5's latest system software update, version 25.02-11.00.00, in a phased release starting today.

As part of this update, players will have their activity details fully displayed now but potential spoilers will still be hidden. Additionally, Unicode 16.0 emojis are now supports and players can use them in their messages.

The update brings new changes to the PS5’s parental restriction settings as well. When they are set to "Late Teens or Older," the "Communication and User-Generated Content" function will now default to "Restrict." Those who already have set their levels to "Late Teens or Older" will not have their previous settings affected, and it will still show "Customize" rather than "Restrict."

Finally, there are some unspecified system software performance and stability improvements, as well as message usability on some screens.

The last PS5 system software update was back in January, and featured smaller improvements to performance and stability.

Sony recently celebrated the 20th anniversary of the God of War series by releasing the Dark Odyssey cosmetic DLC for God of War Ragnarok. There is reportedly a Greek side-story in the works for God of War too. Sony also recently announced that Death Stranding 2: On the Beach will launch on June 26 for PS5.

Version: 25.02-11.00.00 Patch Notes

  • We’ve made it simpler to view details about activities.
    • Activity details are now fully displayed on cards.
    • Potential spoilers will still be hidden.
  • Unicode 16.0 emojis are now supported. You can use them in your messages.
  • When you set the parental controls' restriction level to "Late Teens or Older," "Communication and User-Generated Content" will now default to "Restrict." If you have previously set the level to
    "Late Teens or Older," your previous settings will not be affected and it will be shown as "Customize."
  • We've improved system software performance and stability.
  • We've improved the messages and usability on some screens.
