(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Sony's revealed new features coming to the PlayStation 4 as part of the 5.50 update.

The ppdate will start today as a beta will include man different things that many playstation players have been requesting for quite some time. Things that will be added are:*play time management* ,*library, quick menu updates and a *supersampling mode* for the Ps4 Pro. "With supersampling mode, some games will render at a higher resolution and then be downscaled to match the HDTV - allowing PS4 Pro owners to leverage the benefits of an image clarity boost even if their PS4 Pro is not connected to a 4K TV. Please note performance will vary, as games are optimised differently to take advantage of the power of PS4 Pro."

You also will be able to import Images and Wallpapers by using a USB stick, as was a common feature on the PS3.

The Library update will include :

  • A new tab for apps you bought and installed
  • A list of avatars you bought
  • A new tab for only Ps Plus Games you own
  • An option to hide purchases such as beta's and demo's
  • And finally, an option to permanently remove notification's*

I hoped they would include the ability to delete betas and games from the game list in within user profile, alongside the ability to delete them from library, but that wasn't the case sadly. Got a few beta codes if anyone needs them though:

CTFK T8NX K7F3

75CL XFNF PN98


ya it be nice if they added a tab that Split the Demos/betas as well :( the ID they use on PSN does not always make things simple to remember it was a demo, when u have alot of game :(
