PlayStation announced the addition of a number of new features to the latest beta firmware update, including the option to save energy by reducing gaming performance.

PlayStation said the move is part of the company's long-term environmental project "Road to Zero", which will be launched in the future, but the specific time has not been announced.PlayStation official post stated: "Although this feature is not available during the testing phase, after it is officially launched, PS5 games that support this feature will reduce performance, allowing the host to reduce power consumption when the function is turned on (the player's own choice). If it is not enabled or the game does not support this feature, the performance will not be affected and the power consumption will not be reduced."

The blog specifically states that VR function will not be available when power-saving mode is enabled.This news comes at a time when the industry is rumored that Sony may launch handheld devices that can run PS5 games natively.In addition to the energy-saving mode, the latest firmware will also support the DualSense handle pairing of four devices at the same time."After this update, a single controller can register four devices at the same time and directly switch connection objects from the controller. For example, you can switch the PS5 controller to a computer to play PC games, or connect the phone to remotely play PS5 games. The enhanced flexibility allows you to enjoy the gaming experience between multiple devices."

Currently, PS5 testing qualifications are limited to users in the United States, Canada, Japan, the United Kingdom, Germany and France.
