As a reminder that the PS4 is not yet in the closet despite the release of the PS5, Sony Interactive Entertainment has sent handpicked users an email allowing them to access the beta of update 8.50 of console. According to early feedback, the most notable change is the removal of communities. For memory, “lCommunities are places where you can find players with similar interests and preferences. You can play games, participate in parties, or discuss your common interests with other members of the community.“At present, it is not known whether this decision is final, or if the aim of the maneuver is just to take the temperature.
Other changes include the ability to disable group notifications, hide a game on its profile, and join a game session faster through a request. No deployment date has been communicated for the moment, and it is not impossible that by then, the Japanese manufacturer will add some additional touch-ups.
