Sony has begun rolling out PlayStation 5 System update 22.01-05.10.00.23, and here’s what it does.

Once again, the firmware update appears to be a minor one, and the official release notes on PlayStation 5 only mention improved system performance. Of course, it’s possible that this system update packs some under-the-hood undocumented changes, but we aren’t aware of those just yet.
