Sony released a PlayStation 5 system update yesterday that fixed major problems. The company solved annoying screen stuttering that happened during 120 Hz gaming. Games like The Last of Us and Kingdom Come Deliverance ran poorly before the fix. Players noticed choppy motion even at lower frame rates between 48 Hz and 60 Hz. Elden Ring stopped working smoothly after twenty minutes of play.
The Variable Refresh Rate feature caused these performance issues across many popular games. Sony never mentioned this important repair in their official patch notes. Digital Foundry confirmed the company quietly addressed the widespread stuttering problems. PlayStation 5 systems can match the smooth gaming experience that Xbox Series consoles already provide. Diablo 4 and other high-speed games work better after the software improvement.
The update made small changes to messages and some menu screens. Sony added no major new features with this particular software release. Their last big update came out during April with special anniversary themes. That earlier version brought back Audio Focus tools for better game sound. The feature helps players hear quiet voices and important audio details more clearly.
