Fans Are Trying to Figure Out What’s in PS4’s Mysterious New Update
PlayStation 4's anticipated 6.0 system software update went live earlier today. After weeks of speculation as to what the update may include, many fans were disappointed to learn the update brings with it only one stated change: improved system performance.
