PS5 beta 2.0 and next major update new features revealed by Sony.
0New features in PS5 system software beta (February 2022)
The latest beta for PS5 brings a few really highly-anticipated features to the table.
Discord voice chats
As has been awaited for a while, you'll be able to use Discord to power your voice chats on PS5, including letting it show others what you're playing.
First up you'll need to link your Discord and PlayStation accounts, then authorise your PS5. This will let you use the Discord app on your phone to start a voice chat on PS5.
New social features
There are some other social features being added, including the ability to request shared screens from your friends' profiles, a new icon to let you join friends' games when available, and a tile to let you see whether your friends play a game you're checking out.
You'll also now be able to manually select captures to send to your PS App, rather than simply relying on the auto-upload system as it exists presently.
1440p update
Sony is expanding its compatibility with 1440p, a popular choice of resolution among gamers. It'll now be available on a wider range of displays.
Even better, 1440p will work with variable refresh rates (VRR) to make for even smoother gaming in the case of frame drops - in compatible games.
Wireless controller updates
Everyone knows the annoyance of your console asking you to plug in your DualSense controller every time you turn it on for an update. That's going to be a thing of the past - the controllers will now be able to update wirelessly.
Cloud saves
There are some new features to make it easier to get hold of your saved PS4 data from the cloud when gaming on a PS5, including new notifications prompting you to download cloud saves.
Game captures by voice
Finally, a new system will let you opt into using your voice to control your PS5 as it takes game captures. In the UK and US only, voice commands like "Hey PlayStation, capture that!" will initiate captures.
