PS5 Update Brings Subtle Performance Gains

Sony just rolled out its July 2025 system update for PS5 consoles, and while it might look like just a routine update, players are noticing better performance in select PS5 pro-enhanced games.

What's in the Update?

The patch itself doesn't list specific features, just the classic "system performance improvements". But several PS5 Pro users are reporting:

• Smoother frame rates in certain games

• Shorter load times on titles like Horizon: Forbidden West and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart

• Improved stability while using VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) setups

This update might be small, but it shows just how much effort Sony is continuing silently to optimise the Pro system. Who doesn't love high-performance play that gets even better over time!

Keep your PS5 updated, you may already be getting a performance boost without realising it.
