- Search YouTube using voice commands
- Run Remote Play directly through the PS App
- Option to send share requests to friends
- Notifications to join friends’ games more easily than group chat

Roughly 90 percent of the time when I join a group chat with someone, it’s playing with them fateAnd Rocket League, or something else, and simplifying this process would be a good plus. Also, for the small but dedicated group of people who play PS5 on 1440p gaming monitors, it’s nice to finally be able to take full advantage of the setup.

It took my PS4 three years to finally get it, and following that time I was finally able to organize my growing backlog into something that made sense and felt a lot easier. So I was surprised and even more surprised that the file PS5 released without itbrought me back to square one despite backwards compatibility which greatly increased the launch library’s size.
