Just now, Sony’s development team has made available a new firmware package compatible with PlayStation 4 systems, namely version 4.01, which improves overall system stability during use of certain features and might fix a Voice Chat bug.

Therefore, if you want to enhance your console a little more, or simply want it to be powered by the latest software version available, save the downloadable .PUP file, create a “PS4/UPDATE” path onto an FAT32-formatted USB stick and transfer the firmware there.

Afterwards, insert the stick into your PlayStation 4 system and make sure it’s turned off, press and hold the Power button for at least 7 seconds to enter safe mode and navigate to the Update System Software section

Now, simply follow all instructions displayed on-screen as the console will guide you through the installation. However, bear in mind not to interrupt this in any other way, as it can not only lead to malfunctions but might render the unit unusable.

In addition to that, users also have the option to download and apply the “Re-Install” package that deletes all users, data, settings, and any other files found on the console.

That said, download Sony PlayStation 4 Firmware 4.01, carefully apply it on your gaming system to improve its overall performance, and constantly check our website to stay “updated one minute ago.”
