Sony has released a new PlayStation 5 software update that sees the return of 
its classic console designs. 

The update rolls out today and, as detailed in a new PlayStation blog post, 
contains two new enhancements based on player feedback. 

The first and most notable feature of the update is the return of 
PlayStations 30th anniversary PS5 UI designs, which honour the PS1, PS2, PS3, 
and PS4. 

These retro console designs were limited time when they were first released, 
but Sony has decided to bring them back. 

Players will be able to find the designs under a new feature called 
Appearance under the Settings menu.

Then theres the new PS5 Audio Focus feature, which is designed for increasing 
immersion through presets that amplify soft sounds to meet your hearing 
preferences, ensuring a clearer audio experience when using headphones or 
headsets. 

These presets will make it easier for players to distinguish sounds like 
in-game character dialogue, subtle sound effects, and party voice chat, for a 
more immersive gaming experience. 

PS5 users can find the new feature in the sound settings, or the control 
centre during gameplay, and can choose between four presets, each with three 
different levels, including Weak, Medium, and Strong. You can check out the 
presets below. Boost Low Pitch: Amplify low-frequency sounds like roaring 
engines and rumbling noises. Boost Voices : Amplify voice chats, character 
voices, and other middle-frequency sounds. Boost High Pitch: Amplify 
high-frequency sounds like footsteps and metallic noises. Boost Quiet Sounds: 
Amplify low-volume sounds in a wide range of frequencies. You might also like
