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.

2.04 is currently the latest update. Why is the update 2.50?
Serious question btw.

I have no idea lol. Maybe they've put a few patches into one?

I can't really see myself using the button mapping feature, but the power down feature will be useful when going for dinner or to the shop or something.

I'm still waiting for a layout revamp on the home page of the ps4. I don't know why, i just don't like the whole visual aspect how it's presented
