  • This system software update improves system performance.

If you want to get the recovery firmware for this new system software version, you need to download approximately one GB file. This can be used to recover and install the firmware in case it gets corrupt or if you are facing issues. This is also usually needed when upgrading to a higher capacity hard disk.

Sony hasn’t shared any details on what they have planned when it comes to future system software updates. They have already announced the successor for PS4 with the launch of PlayStation 5 scheduled for Holiday 2020. It is very unlikely that they will release any major software update in the near future. So far, the changelog mainly mentions system performance improvements which can amount to nothing for most of us.
