PS4 System Update 10.0 Improves Remote Play Features

Sony rolled out PS4 system update 10.0 today alongside the much-awaited PS5 firmware update. Unlike the current-gen console, PS4’s firmware update doesn’t offer a whole lot, but that’s to be expected at this point in the console’s lifecycle. Nevertheless, PS4 still has a massive install base and it’s nice to see improvements headed its way. Today’s system update improves Remote Play features and the Internet Browser.

PS4 system update 10.0 patch notes

  • While using the Internet Browser, you can now select between two types of zoom functions. “Zoom” lets you increase the size of the elements on the page while adjusting their layout so everything fits without having to scroll left and right. “Magnify” increases the size of everything on the page without layout adjustments. The maximum zoom/magnification rate is now 500%.
  • We’ve updated the following for Remote Play. It’s now easier to use the keyboard on your PC or Mac when using PS Remote Play. We’ve removed the text entry box so you can use your keyboard to type directly onto your PS5 console or PS4 console. In addition to typing, you can also now use the keyboard to control games that support it.

As a reminder, here’s how you can manually update your PS4 if it’s not connected to the internet.

  1. Using a PC or Mac, create a folder named “PS4” on a USB drive formatted as FAT32. Inside that folder, create another folder named “UPDATE”.
  2. Download the update file (button below) and save it in the “UPDATE” folder. Save the file as “PS4UPDATE.PUP”.
  3. Plug the USB drive containing the file into your PS4 console.
  4. Start the PS4 console in Safe Mode: press and hold the power button, releasing after the second beep.
  5. Select Safe Mode option 3: Update System Software.
  6. Select Update from USB Storage Device > OK.
