Sony has begun a phased rollout of PlayStation 5 system software version 26.04-13.40.00. The update file is just over 1.2GB and is appearing for users in the UK as part of a gradual distribution.

Official patch notes contain a single line: “We’ve improved system software performance and stability.” Sony has not published additional technical details or provided a timeline for wider availability.

The update is being delivered in stages, so timing will vary by region and account. Users who do not see the download immediately should check the console’s system software screen periodically.

PlayStation 5 receives frequent incremental system updates to maintain reliability, address security issues and add features when they are ready for public release. Major interface or functionality changes are normally accompanied by fuller notes and broader rollouts, while short, stability-focused patches are typically delivered piecemeal.
