PS5 Pro users will find the data transfer process from PS5 easier thanks to the recent system update.

Usability has been improved.

A new update for the PS5 system has been released, designed to optimize the data transfer process between consoles. Version 24.08-10.40.00 is now available and it is a relatively small patch that mainly focuses on facilitating data migration from one PS5 to another, while also improving usability and message management.

With the arrival of the PS5 Pro, many users will want to move their upgraded games and other data to their new system, which could have previously been a complicated process. Fortunately, this update has simplified this task, highlighting in the patch notes that "stability has also been improved when transferring large volumes of data, such as captures."

The details of PS5 version 24.08-10.40.00 indicate that the efficiency of data transfer from another PS5 has been enhanced, and stability during the transfer of large amounts of data has been improved. Additionally, improvements have been made in messaging and the usability of certain screens.

On another note, this week, the company launched a major sale for the 30th anniversary of the PlayStation Store. Users can enjoy discounts on nearly 500 games for PS4 and PS5 until December 20, including featured titles like The Last of Us Part 1, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, and Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales.

Lastly, there are rumors about the upcoming release of a black version of the PlayStation Portal, which will be offered in "limited quantities" and at a price comparable to the original white model. It is also reported that Sony may be preparing to release black versions of several PlayStation accessories, such as the DualSense Edge controller, Pulse Elite, and Pulse Explore.
