Expect "a lot" of PS5 features to be added to Sony's game console in the future, and while the PS5 is already a pretty feature-rich machine, Sony has announced that it still has "a lot of interesting, exciting, great ideas" coming through future software updates.

These quotes are from a PlayStation Blog interview with Hideaki Nishino, SVP of Platform Experience at Sony Interactive Entertainment, in which Nishino also He admits. It is clear that Sony has big plans for future PS5 updates.

The second major update to the PS5 took place earlier this month and added several requested features. Most notable was the ability to upgrade the console's internal storage, but 3D audio support for the TV's built-in speakers and improvements to the trophy system were also highlights.

Feedback from the community is closely monitored, and Nishino explained, "We have learned a lot through PS4 and continue to learn how players use the system and how the game works. We know what is most accepted and most popular and what features are underused"

.

Although specifics were not discussed in this interview, Sony's development team seems to have no shortage of ideas to inspire players to add in the future. Support for variable refresh rates, compatibility with 1440p monitors, further customization of the UI, and the ability to sort game icons into folders are among the features requested in the blog comments section, which Nishino and his team are apparently monitoring.

Interestingly, the latest system update seems to have improved performance levels in some titles, with games like Control and Devil May Cry 5 seeing slight frame rate improvements after the patch. Future firmware could further improve the performance of the console as well as add new features to the PS5.
