How to Update Your PS4 Automatically
Although its focus is now on the PlayStation 5, Sony still regularly releases software updates for the PS4. It’s a good idea to have the latest firmware running on your PS4 to take advantage of new features, bug fixes, and security improvements. There are a few different ways to update your PS4. This article will show you the various methods you can use to ensure your PS4 is always running the latest software. The easiest way to update your PS4 is to enable automatic downloads. This way, your console will download and install updates in rest mode when they become available. Here’s how to set up automatic software updates.

How Do I Update My PS4 Without an Internet Connection?
If you don’t have your PS4 connected to your home network, you can still update the console by downloading the update to a USB drive and copying the file over. It’s best to use a blank USB drive, as you’ll most likely need to reformat it because the PS4 only recognizes the FAT32 and exFAT file systems.
