The headline feature of the update is an improvement to the data transfer process between PS5 consoles.
Sony began a phased release of PS5 software update version 24.08-10.40.00 on December 3.
PS5 update 24.08-10.40.00 patch notes:
- We’ve improved the process of transferring data from another PS5 and enhanced stability when transferring large amounts of data, such as captures.
- We’ve improved the messages and usability on some screens.
December’s PlayStation Plus Essential games were released on Tuesday. It Takes Two (PS4, PS5), Aliens: Dark Descent (PS4, PS5) and Temtem (PS5) will be available for subscribers to claim until January 6.
December’s additions to the Classics Catalog, which is available to PlayStation Plus Premium members, will include PS2 games Sly 2: Band of Thieves, Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves, and Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. They will be released on December 10.
