PS5 UI Update Drops Server-Side, Introducing Icon Tabs

Sony’s April 2026 PS5 UI update is a server-side rollout (no download required) and isn’t available to all players yet. The change broadens the top navigation from two tabs to multiple icon-based tabs—PS Store, PS Plus, Games, Library, and Media—navigable with L1/R1, and adds no themes or other features. Rollout is staggered by region, with wider availability to come; reports of a beta test are incorrect, and Sony will announce when the update reaches more players.

The new Run features a sleek, flyout design, adapts to dark/light modes, and includes a history list, though it lacks some features like the 'Browse' option and cannot be moved from its position.
