Good news for PS5 users with QHD monitors. This is because Sony has foretold a software update that adds various features, including 1440p support.

On the 28th, Sony released the beta version of the PS5 system software with new features. This update focuses on gameplay and social improvements.

Among these, the standout is the addition of 1440p HDMI video output. In the past, resolution options in PS5 only support 4K (3840×2160) for FHD (1920×1080) or higher, so if there is no related supplementary function on a QHD (2560×1440) monitor or TV, the resolution does not match, so I had no choice but to play the game at low quality. A function is introduced and this part is resolved. In fact, there were a lot of opinions among PS5 users asking for 1440p support.

Next, a ‘game list’ is added that allows you to organize multiple games by grouping them into folders. Through the game list, you can organize up to 100 games that have been listed without a standard for each list. In addition, elements such as requesting screen sharing from social functions to watch, or receiving notifications of games that can be played together will be added.

This beta will be provided first to invited users from some countries, such as the United States, Canada, Japan, United Kingdom, Germany, and France, and will be introduced into the official version at the end of the year.
