00:00New PS5 System Update Released, but don't get your hopes up.
00:05Sony is rolling out PS5 System Software Update 25.08-12.40.00 for December 2025 starting
00:14early this morning, and it's the least exciting update of the year.
00:18From the looks of it, the company wants to plug some vulnerabilities and exploits ahead
00:22of the holiday.
00:23The PS5 System Software Update 25.08-12.40.00 Patch Notes, December 3rd, 2025
00:32Complete patch notes for today's update are as follows.
00:35We've improved the messages and usability on some screens.
00:38We've improved system software performance and stability.
00:42Do note that this update is being released in phases, so if you're not being prompted
00:46to update your PS5 firmware, there's nothing to worry about.
00:49Speaking of messages and usability, Sony has quietly made some changes to the PSN Messaging
00:55System, introducing the ability to see when players are typing messages, the ability to
01:00delete sent messages, and read receipts.
01:03The new features are available both on the console and the latest version of PS app.
01:07However, as we pointed out recently, read receipts are turned on by default, so if you're concerned
01:12about privacy, make sure to turn them off.
