The PlayStation 5 is getting a software update that brings back the looks of yesteryear. After fans applauded the move to apply to their consoles’ home screens during the PlayStation 30th anniversary last year, the company it was working on making those permanent aesthetic options. That promised return of the four retro UI looks is the highlight of the upcoming PS5 .
Unfortunately, the start-up audio chimes that accompanied each generation are not coming back. But the visual part can be changed at will under the Appearance tab of the Settings menu.
The other big component of the upcoming software update is a feature called Audio Focus that can help increase immersion during a play session while using headphones or headsets. With these presets, players can choose to boost the voice, the low pitch sounds, the high pitch sounds or the quiet sounds. You can also set whether the amount of amplification is weak, medium or strong.
The PS5 update will begin its global rollout on April 24.
