A new PS5 update has rolled out, and in addition to the usual stability and performance improvements, users can expect a new method for inviting other players to join their game sessions.
Update 24.05-09.60.00 will allow players to share a URL link to their open session, by opening the game session action card and using the “Share Link” option to generate a QR code. All a player has to do then is scan the QR code with their mobile device, and they’ll be able to join a session. If you’re feeling brave, you could theoretically throw this URL onto the internet and see if anyone joins you for a quick multiplayer game, in case you need some quick backup.
Players enrolled in the Voice Command preview program can also use the command “Show Game Help” to open Game Help action cards, and Sony says it has updated the device software of some DualSense wireless controllers to make them more stable.
