In the new PlayStation firmware update, a useful feature received a total renewal that will help players more than ever. The renewal of Game Help, a feature providing players with tips for specific parts of each title, will enhance the process for players to avoid becoming stuck.
What is the new PlayStation Game Help feature?
With this update, players can now provide tips for the community to follow, ensuring they don’t encounter any game-related difficulties. This means a user can upload their own clip and wait for other members of the community to help them pass that specific part of the game. Now, players can anticipate real-time guidance to avoid becoming stuck.
How to use the new Game Help feature
This updated Game Help system aims to integrate every player into the community by enabling them to record some of their gameplay. Then it is reviewed and added later in the future for the community to see if it helps their specific situation. No other player should encounter such difficulty again.
The PlayStation 5 HUD allows the player to pin the Game Help video to the screen during gameplay, guiding them through the game’s progression. This new addition will greatly benefit the console and help maintain the rhythm of the game.
