The update brings Boost mode to PS4 Pro, offering better performance for older titles, alongside external hard drive support and 3D Blu-Ray viewing on PS VR.

Additionally, the update will offer up voice chat for remote play, improved 2D images on PS VR, custom wallpapers, a simplified notification list and updates to PS Messages and Communities.

The update is expected quite late in the evening tonight in Australia.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.
