Here’s a list of the key features:
Updated user interface – The first thing you’ll notice is the sleek new user interface of the redesigned PS App. The new home screen lets you quickly see what your friends are playing and access details about your recently played games, including your Trophy List.

Messages integration – For a unified experience, the PS Messages app feature will now be integrated in the updated PS App so you can seamlessly message your friends all in one place. As part of this integration, PS Messages will no longer be available as a standalone app. Your existing messages and threads in PS Messages will be carried over to the updated PS App.

Voice Chat and Party Groups – You can now create party groups from PS App, and voice chat with up to 15 other friends though your mobile phone. Also, a note to fans: the PlayStation team is looking into your feedback around the Parties changes introduced in the PS4 system software update 8.00. There are no updates to share today, but thanks for speaking up about your concerns – we’re listening and evaluating.

Natively integrated PlayStation Store and remote downloads – The new native PS Store experience enables fast and smooth shopping and browsing, with the ability to remotely download games and add-ons directly to your PS4 and PS5.

New features for PS5 – When PS5 arrives, you’ll be able to remotely launch games, manage storage on your console if you run out of space while downloading a game, and quickly sign in to PS5 straight from the PS App.

All the latest PlayStation news – The Explore tab surfaces Official News from game developers and PS Blog content to help you stay up to date with the world of PlayStation.

It is! It's a shame I own pretty much every game on it already though :pac:

With 2077 pushed back I guess Valhalla is a day one buy now. Not been exactly blown away by what I've seen in previews though.

The storage management is a real nice feature there!

FutureGuy · 28-10-2020 7:31pm

Confirmed for launch. Hurrah.

CastorTroy · 28-10-2020 8:26pm

Was able to order the adapter okay.

Details required: PSVR serial, name, email and address.

Potential-Monke · 28-10-2020 8:31pm

Worked for me just now too. Still don't know if I'm going to keep it, but I'll hold onto it to see what it's like on the 5 and trade in afterwards then if I'm still not happy. Most interested to play No Man's Sky on it again, see if there's any great improvement, but I've no doubt the non-VR enhanced PS5 version will be better either way.

CastorTroy · 28-10-2020 8:45pm

Strange how it says you're not guaranteed one

sticker · 28-10-2020 8:49pm

Edit: Sorry double post from previous - didn't see it!

Site isn't fully working at the minute, but keep an eye above to request your VR Camera adaptor.

I had posted it on the previous page.

For those looking to get the camera adapter for the PS4 Camera to use PSVR on PS5. The page is now live to request it. Although it's not fully functional yet. It might send you in a loop. But I'd imagine it'll work properly soon.

Requested the ps vr adapter but got no email confirmation.

CastorTroy · 28-10-2020 9:32pm

Got a mail about 20 or 30 mins later.

Your request for a PlayStation®Camera Adaptor has been received.

We will contact you again about the status of your request. If granted, shipments are expected to begin around mid-November 2020.

Double check your spam folder, that's where mine ended up.

For those that got confirmations for this year, can you check the GameStop website orders page (https://www.gamestop.ie/AccountManagement/UserOrderMenu) and confirm what date is on your order for shipment mine states end of Dec

Mine doesn't have anything on the gamestop website that indicates a delivery date

My online order has said the 19th, since I placed the order. But this is never definitive, as it can change.

Digital foundry first ps5 video is up

johnny_ultimate · 28-10-2020 11:02pm

Would happily take Astrobot over Cyberpunk, tbh. Rescue Mission was such a joy and remains one of the all-time great games of the last decade. Glad to see this mini sequel is looking like much more than just a mere tech demo, even if it seems exceptionally good as a tech demo!

I don't know where you're based but 9.30pm is hardly late at night.

Parsnips · 29-10-2020 12:32am

IN Case anyone i interested.

Argos have cataloged PS5 games as €60 same as PS4 titles. this includes Ass Creed Val & Cyberpunk.
I will be going to argos for my fix.

I believe it was uploaded at that time because that's literally as soon as the video was ready.

They only got their PS5 yesterday.. all the people who posted unboxings got it several days beforehand. Being late on the scene costs them a lot of clicks so they were working flat out to capture footage and write the article. 9pm (or whenever) was when it was done, which gives you an idea of the work that goes into even a short video.

Or it’s basically it’s the earliest time they could legally and personally get the video out. DF is 5 people who capture, write, edit and publish their videos in solo here. They don’t have a huge team to edit or write these things. Also it’s John lineman who is quite particular (by no means meant as a detrimental comment).

People are really reading between the lines so much on these things.
