Sony releases version 26.07-14.22.00 as jailbreak efforts continue
Summary
– Sony released PS5 system software version 26.07-14.22.00 on November 2
– The 1.267 GB update includes unspecified security fixes
– Speculation about GTA 6 and future firmware requirements remains unconfirmed
Sony has released a new PlayStation 5 firmware update that includes security fixes amid ongoing efforts to jailbreak the console.
Version 26.07-14.22.00 is available to download as of November 2 and weighs 1.267 GB. Sony’s patch notes provide little detail, stating only that the update includes security fixes to the system software.
The update arrives as jailbreak efforts continue to draw attention. Sony has not said whether the latest fixes address specific exploits, and the brief patch notes do not explain what changed.
The timing has also fueled speculation about Grand Theft Auto 6 and whether the game will require a particular PS5 firmware version. Claims about the game’s requirements have circulated online, but neither Sony nor Rockstar has announced any official requirements.
It remains to be seen whether this update will be enough to address current security concerns or if Sony will release further system software updates before GTA 6 launches.
