While much of the attention these days from Sony is on the recently released PlayStation 5, its younger sibling is still getting some love. Sony has released the latest firmware update for the PlayStation 4, but, you guessed it, this one doesn't do much.

PS4 version 8.01 improves system performance, but that's all there is to say. The one-sentence patch notes read, "This system software update improves system performance."

The PS4's 8.0 update, which arrived in October, was much more substantial. Among other things, it introduced updates to party and messages, new free avatars, simplified parental controls, and enhanced two-step authentication that finally allows the use of apps.
