Sony Computer Entertainment has begun a new PlayStation 4 system software beta testing program for its PlayStation MVP Program members, and details on firmware update version 2.50, now in beta testing, have leaked.

The main feature of the 2.50 update is the long-awaited suspend/resume feature first announced at PlayStation 4’s reveal press conference in February last year.

Here’s the outline:

Main Features

The system can now enter rest mode without closing any applications. You can adjust this setting in [Power Save Settings] > [Set Functions Available in Rest Mode].
[Accessibility] has been added to [Settings]. You can adjust accessibility settings such as zooming and button assignments.

This information comes from a beta tester who leaked the update screen image. There appears to be other features introduced in the update that are not main features, like one pertaining to trophies, but they are cut from the screenshot.


Delete trophies with zero percent.
Search trophy details on the internet, including screenshots of scenes with trophies.
SharePlay at 60 frames per second.
Share trophy details and screenshots.

Looks like you can do button mapping also.

Apparently the firmware is being planned for a public release either later this month or sometime in April.

This update will be out sometime April.





I've never used button mapping before but I can see it has its uses.

Lol yeah not too far though. :p

Well, I live in Asia and I have to either get a chinese one or a japanese one. They both have O for select, and it's getting really really annoying.

Especially how it's X on my PS3, and in-game on my PS4.

I played a Japanese game and found out that the O and X are the other way around lol.

Haha, yeah japanese has O and X swapped around.

Well its an update..wait..

well if you remember PS1 the O was the select/ok/enter button where as X was back/cancel/quit. wasnt till a few years after PS2 that some US games started switching them around

That button mapping. That would be the shit. Especially if we can set specific mappings for specific games.

so happy with this update cuz my ps4 is a japanese version and finally i can change the O to X

Running 2.50 right now...
