At long last, the PS5 finally lets you mute the dreaded "beep sound" that's been non-negotiable since PS3 days

The 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PS5's new beta firmware update includes an 🀅option to adjust the infamous start-up beep sound's volume, all the way down to a ꦅfull-on mute if you prefer.

The software update is rolling out to PS5 beta testers today, and as we covered earlier, it 🍃effectively dou𒁃bles the capacity limit for replacement SSDs, from the previous 4TB cap to 8TB. However, while us chronic game hoarders were singing the praises of the update, we glossed right over the fact that a PlayStation 💃console trademark since the PS3 days is now fully turn-off-a♋ble. 

for the update is this golden little tidbit: "You can now mute or adjust the volume of the PS5's beep sound when turning it on or off, or putting it in rest mode."

Assuming this change makes its way to all PS5 users at some point down the road, you'll see a new option in system settings for "Beep Sound," and I just have to say I adore that that's its official name. From there, you'll be able to toggle the beepity beep on and off and use a volume slider to make it quieter or, for the truly lost, louder.

The PlayStation community's reactio🥂n to this addition has ranged from apathetic to , with almost nothing in-between. Apparently, you've either heard so many PlayStation beeps that you're completely deꦕsensitized or traumatized by them at this point. 

Personally, I find the beep useful in alerting me ജto the fact that I have indeed sat on my PS5 contr🤪oller and that my episode of Love Island is about to be interrupted by the PS5 start-up screen. That said, it's nice to have options.

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate co𒁃py editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
