The PlayStation 3, which launched roughly eleven years (!) ago, received a new system software update by Sony, Pure PlayStation reports. The 4.82 firmware is already available to install, and although the official patch note doesn’t say anything else other than the usual system stability improvements, there’s likely another reason behind Sony’s move.
With 4.82, Sony is likely stepping up its game against piracy (otherwise why would the PS3 get a new firmware out of nowhere?), which is understandable. However, after this move, we wouldn’t be surprised if Sony went back to the PlayStation Vita as well, and even that handheld is turning six in a month or so…
