Relapse covers firmware 7.00 through 13.60 on PS5 and PS5 Pro, runs in seconds, and is gone again on reboot. Firmware 14.00 is not affected. Here is what it actually does, what it risks, and why it is not the hypervisor exploit the scene was sitting on.

Two editions, one of them digital-only, a $10 upgrade path between them, and a 16 February 2027 release. The third PlayStation tentpole in a row to skip a collector's edition — and the one reason not to preorder yet.

It is an update to the game you already own, not a new edition. Saves carry over, unlocked trophies stay unlocked, and there is no second platinum to farm. Here is what actually changes on PS5 and PS5 Pro.

Silent Hill 2 and Yakuza: Like a Dragon head the list, and unlike the Essential tier you do not get to keep any of them. Here is the full list, what happens to your trophies, and which titles are region-dependent.

A hardware leaker says the PS6 silicon is taped out and heading to fab at around 40 teraflops. That points at late 2027 — which is the opposite of what Sony's own chief executive has been saying, and we sided with Sony.

Firmware 26.06-14.00.00 enables Enhance PSSR Image Quality by default on PS5 Pro, adds a speaker indicator to voice chat, and puts a country-level Top 10 widget on your home screen. What each change does, and how to undo the one that was made for you.

More than 600 PS5 titles are discounted until 7 October. The steepest featured cut is Starfield at 40% off, and the pattern across the headline deals says something about who is discounting hardest on Sony's own store.

Critics call it the best FC in years and the same game as last year, depending who you read. The one complaint that recurs across almost every review is monetisation.

Marvel's Wolverine is the third biggest PS5 boxed launch in the UK this year and nearly three times the size of Death Stranding 2. It is also 60% below Spider-Man 2 — and both of those facts matter.

84 on Metacritic and OpenCritic, a "Mighty" rating, and 85% of critics recommending it. Here is what reviewers agreed on, where they split hard, and whether the Digital Deluxe is still worth it.

85% of critics recommend it, with praise for the atmosphere, puzzles and soundtrack, and consistent complaints about a thin enemy roster and a predictable story. The breakdown before the 24 September launch.

A jailbreak covering PS4 firmware 13.52 and below has put mod menus back into GTA Online lobbies. It is not a PS5 hack, it is not affecting every game, and the thing most likely to get you banned is accepting free money.
