PS5 and PS4 profiles gain new avatars in latest firmware update

Sony recently added the PlayStation 4 firmware update 8.00 for Playstation 4 users; alongside a number of different changes to the party system, updated parental controls, messaging and the ability to mute all microphones in the Quick Menu is one markedly amusing new addition — a multitude of brand-new, free of charge avatars.

A total of 71 avatars, which include profile pictures from games such as The Last of Us: Part II, The Last of Us Remastered, God of War, Ghost of Tsushima, Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, Bloodborne, Jak and Dexter and Ratchet & Clank have been added to the profile customization menu.
