Sony has pushed out a new PlayStation 5 update, version 26.06-14.00.00<\/strong>, in a worldwide rollout that weighs in at about 1.26GB. The patch adds a Community Activity widget to the Welcome Hub and, on PlayStation 5 Pro, turns on improved PSSR image quality by default in supported games.<\/p>\n

The new Community Activity widget is meant to make multiplayer activity easier to read at a glance. It includes Trending Now<\/strong>, which surfaces 10 games or modes that have seen a recent jump in activity, and Top 10, which lists the most popular games in your country or region over the past week. Between the two, you get a look at both sudden spikes and the games that have been holding attention over time.<\/p>\n\n

That gives PS5 owners a better sense of what’s happening across PlayStation, a little closer to what Steam<\/a> users are used to seeing. It could make it easier to find healthier lobbies, stumble across modes people have started playing again, or jump back into games that are having a small comeback. Sony still hasn’t said much about how it measures popularity, though, and early reactions will probably bring more questions<\/strong> about how this kind of engagement data is put together.<\/p>\n\n

PS5 Pro owners also get Sony’s updated image reconstruction model through the Enhance PSSR Image Quality setting. On top of that, all PS5 users<\/strong> are getting a speaker indicator for voice chat, plus an esports-leaning option to turn off Bluetooth for a more stable controller connection, Sony says.<\/p>\n\n

If you play online a lot, or if you’ve got a PS5 Pro, this one’s probably worth installing<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

It’s available to download now on PS5 consoles worldwide.<\/p>\n
