Sony announced the new testing features of PS5 on the official blog, changing the interface UI and adding game settings, including the first open beta to use the "Hey PlayStation" voice-activated command.
PS5 players in the United States and the United Kingdom if they participate in the beta version, they will be able to open the "voice control" option in the setting menu, and then as long as they shout "Hey PlayStation" into the microphone, they can control the PS5 with voice control to open movies and apps, or look for games and configuration pages, which are still in the early stage of testing, whether to expand to the world and other languages, still need to be officially announced.
In addition to voice-activated commands, in the future, players can set "open" or "private" after opening the "party", the former allows friends to join themselves, and the latter needs to be invited to play together. At the party will add schemas that tell the player who is talking now. Voice conversations are now renamed "Parties", and the Game Base menu is divided into three blocks: friends, parties, messages, etc., similar to communication software can view the list of friends, and deliver messages and so on.
The PS5 menu will categorize games, add filter buttons, allow players to quickly find the titles they want to play, and can now pin specific games and apps on the desktop, up to 5 pins. The visual design of the trophy list is also updated, and the relevant suggestions can be viewed through the tracker.
The above functions are currently only available to "beta" users, if you want to try the early can go to the Sony official website to register for qualifications, it should be noted that the beta version may have more bugs, and the function may not necessarily appear in the final version.
