Sony
is
rolling
out
a
new
PS5
update
that
improves
the
speakers
and
microphone
on
DualSense
controllers,
adds
pointers
and
emoji
reactions
to
the
Screen
Share
feature,
and
includes
the
ability
to
adjust
the
brightness
of
your
PS5
power
indicator.
The
update
was
first
made
available
to
testers
last
month
and
is
rolling
out
globally
to
all
PS5
owners
today.
Sony
is
updating
the
firmware
on
the
DualSense
and
DualSense
Edge
wireless
controllers
as
part
of
this
update
to
improve
the
output
volume
of
in-game
sounds
and
voice
chat.
The
microphones
on
both
controllers
have
also
been
improved
thanks
to
a
new
machine
learning
model
that
cancels
out
background
noise
like
button
presses.

The
Screen
Share
function
on
the
PS5
is
also
getting
pointers
and
emoji
reactions,
allowing
friends
to
draw
an
instructional
line
on
a
shared
screen
to
highlight
areas
or
objects.
Viewers
can
also
send
emoji
reactions
to
the
host
of
the
screen
sharing,
perfect
if
you
want
to
celebrate
a
boss
completion.
You’ll
be
able
to
disable
these
pointers
and
emoji
if
they
get
a
little
too
distracting.
A
PlayStation
mobile
app
update
is
also
coming
later
this
month
to
allow
iOS
and
Android
users
to
use
these
new
Share
Screen
interactions.
Sony
is
also
allowing
PS5
owners
to
adjust
the
brightness
of
the
PS5’s
power
indicator
as
part
of
this
update.
You
can
pick
from
three
new
options:
dim,
medium,
and
bright
(default).
You
won’t
be
able
to
fully
disable
the
power
indicator,
though.
