has people reporting issues with ****** Stranding: Director’s Cut, ****** Myth: Wukong, No Man’s Sky, Gran Turismo 7, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, and Elden Ring, although none of these games’ developers has made a public comment on the situation at the time of this writing (and they could just be bugs unrelated to the update).

was a big one. It introduced the Welcome hub, a customizable space on your PS5 home screen that is the closest the console has gotten to have themes. You can choose from a variety of widgets, increase or decrease their size, and change up the background with images from your media gallery. This is a huge deal for people who wanted to change up the interface, either by making it look the way they want or to remove some unnecessary widgets. The update introduced this feature to some U.S. users, but it’s following a gradual rollout in the coming weeks. Sony also introduced Party Share, which allows players to share party voice chat links on other platforms.

The update also introduced some features previously only in beta, like personalized 3D audio profiles with headphones, adaptive controller charging on the PS5 Slim, and the ability to adjust remote play settings per user.

Final Fantasy XVI also just released on PC, and while it has a few problems, a few community members have released a free mod to fix some of them in the meantime.
