PlayStation 4 March 2025 Update Released
Sony continues to support PlayStation 4 users despite releasing the PlayStation 5 in 2020. The new system update released in March 2025 includes small but important improvements for PS4 and PS4 Pro. The update aims to provide ease of use for messaging and some screens, while allowing players to use the device more efficiently. This update shows that Sony will continue to support its older generation consoles.
PlayStation 4 March 2025 Update Details
The update was released with version code 12.50 and draws attention with the adjustments made mainly to the messaging system and screen usage. Sony stated that this update is not aimed at improving the device performance, but rather at improving the user experience. PS4 users who do not expect major changes as in the past think that such small touches extend the life of the device.
However, another update released by Sony in early 2025 focused on fixing security vulnerabilities. This is considered an indication that the PlayStation brand is still providing regular support and maintenance for its older-generation consoles. However, major updates are not expected for the PS4 in the future.
PlayStation 4 has become one of the best-selling game consoles, reaching 117 million units sold since its release in 2013. The PS4, Sony’s second best-selling console after the PlayStation 2, continues to be the choice of many gamers even after the release of the PlayStation 5.
Sony aims to satisfy gamers with such updates it offers for older-generation consoles. PS4 Pro users in particular state that the device is still a strong option with both its performance and game library. The fact that Sony continues to provide support for older consoles with these updates is appreciated by gamers. This approach allows PS4 users to continue to actively use their devices and strengthens the loyal fan base of the PlayStation brand.
