PS4 system update 1.74 coming soon

4.7

Sony has confirmed plans to release PS4 system update 1.74 in the near future.

Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida said in June that a number of highly anticipated PS4 features announced when the console was revealed in February 2013 are still in development, although he couldn't give a timeframe for their release.

One is a resume and suspend feature, which is expected to significantly reduce the loading time between players accessing content by keeping the console in a low power state while preserving game sessions.

Additionally, Sony said last February that it plans to use Gaikai to enable players to take control of a friend's game remotely in order to help out during tricky sections.

At E3 in June, Sony announced that Far Cry 4 owners will be able to invite friends to play co-op with them even if their partner does not have a copy of the game. PlayStation Europe president Jim Ryan told CVG that the feature is "the first manifestation" of an idea that is "envisaged as a platform level feature".

HarmfulMushroom I'm tired of these BS System software stability updates, this is the third one in a row.

You're mad because they are making the system more stable? How ignorant.

I cant see a difference in 'stability'

Miss I honestly don't understand the point of that whole Far Cry 4 thing. Like who cares if you can do that if someone doesn't own the game. Seems rather stupid.

you sound just like my friend who hates every cool detail that doesnt impact them at all
