PS4 System Software Update 4.72 Released

4.6

Today Sony Interactive Entertainment made a new PS4 system software update available for download from the PlayStation Network.

The update is numbered 4.72, and it weighs only 340.6 megabytes.

As for what it does, you probably won’t be surprised to read the usual patch notes:

“This sytem software update improves the quality of the system performance.”
This is pretty much par for the course for decimal updates, and it’s the equivalent of the old “stability” update. Apparently someone at Sony got tired of all the memes, and now we get “quality” updates.

At the moment of this writing the update isn’t yet available on the relevant websites, and and you’ll need to use the option in the settings of your PS4 or PS4 Pro to launch it.
