It seems that the most recent firmware update for the Sony’s console, with the majority of them dealing with minor issues that most players seldom notice.
The more noteworthy of these updates serve to add additional features to the PS4, PlayStation 5.
As reported by VG24/7, the PS4’s most recent update, 7.50, has caused some consoles to fail to start up again after installation. Some players report their systems shutting down, restarting, and then shutting down again in an infinite, repeated loop, while others only see a black screen as their console turns on but doesn’t transmit a signal to their TV set. In addition, there are also reports of an issue with the console’s Blu-Ray drive installing, although that reportedly isn’t new to the PlayStation 4's recent 7.50 update and seems to have more to do with the drive itself.
This could prove problematic for some players, as the ongoing Play At Home Initiative.
Still, free games don’t mean much if the players can’t get their consoles to boot up, hence the growing issue with the PlayStation 4’s 7.50 update. So far there isn’t any real fix to the problem, save for booting up the affected console in Safe Mode via holding down the power button for ten seconds and trying to reset the system from there, but hopefully a better solution comes soon so players affected by these new issues can get back to enjoying their PlayStation 4 games.
