PS5 Firmware Update 21.01-03.20.00 released (as always, avoid updating if possible)
Sony released Firmware 21.01-03.20.00 a few hours ago for the PlayStation 5. For those of you who hope to get their PS5 hacked one day, we recommend you do not update, if possible (more on this below).
The previous update was 21.01-03.10.00, back in April, and was also a minor update.
PS5 21.01-03.20.00. What’s new?
Basically, this firmware update adds nothing new compared to the previous release, except for the infamous “stability update”, which probably means a few critical (but unknown) bugs have been patched since 21.01-03.10.00. If you’ve been running into issues with your PS5, you might want to consider updating, but read the next section before making a decision.
PS5 21.01-03.20.00. Should I update?
If you’re one of the few lucky owners of a PS5, but are hoping to get a PS5 Jailbreak one day, you’ll have a tough decision to make on whether to update your console or not. There is no PS5 Jailbreak available at the moment, and having any chance of a hack for the console could take months or years. However, if/when a hack is released for the PS5, it is very likely it will only work on lower firmwares. Those of us who will have kept a launch PS5 with the firmware it came with, will have a higher chance of getting a hack for their consoles.
But if you’re a gamer, or if the idea of waiting years to be able to use your console for hacks doesn’t seem enticing, this firmware update will probably be compulsory for you.
You might want to get two consoles: one for gaming, one for hacking. But with the global shortage of PS5s going on, getting a PS5 is already almost impossible, let alone 2 of them. If that’s a possibility for you though, go for it.

back in my day, an update was exciting because it added FEATURES like…trophies, custom music ingame.
Again?
List of fixes/chnages don’t look like in the article, it’s as follows:
Version: 21.01-03.20.00
This system software update improves system performance. We’ve updated the DualSense wireless controller device software to improve stability. We’ve fixed an issue that restricted the functionality of some screens when the screen reader was enabled. We’ve fixed an issue where games that you’ve hidden on PS4 were not hidden on PS5. We’ve made the process of copying games from USB extended storage to console storage in the game library more stable.
