PS4_Firmware_1.75Last week, it was announced that PS4 firmware 1.75 would arrive and bring with it Blu-ray 3D playback. As expected, the PS4 system software update is now live and brings with it exactly that. What else can we expected from the last firmware update? We talk details, after the jump.

Coming in at 185MB, the PS4 firmware 1.75 brings with it:

  • Blu-ray 3D is now supported.
  • Sound quality has been improved during 1.5x playback for Blu-ray Disc and DVD videos.
  • System messages previously displayed in the top-right corner of the screen are now displayed in the top-left corner of the screen.
  • [Featured Content] has been added to (Settings) > [System] > [Automatic Downloads and Uploads]. When this setting is enabled, featured content from PlayStation Store is automatically downloaded while the PS4 system is either powered on or in standby mode. To download while in standby mode, go to (Settings) > [Power Save Settings] > [Set Functions Available in Standby Mode] and turn on [Connect to the Internet].

For those who are looking to download the update from Sony’s site onto a USB drive, keep in mind that you’ll need at least 320MB of free space despite the actual update being far smaller.
