Sony Interactive Entertainment rolled out PS4 system software update 13.52 out of nowhere this morning, June 16, and it brings some unwelcome “improvements” for the modding/jailbreaking community. Unlike the March 2026 firmware update that brought usability improvements, this one patches security exploits and vulnerabilities.
PS4 system software update 13.52 patch notes (June 16, 2026)
“We’ve made some security fixes to the system software,” the official patch notes read. But we all know by now what this means. Although the PS4 was jailbroken long ago, the company is trying to deter ongoing and future hacking and modding attempts.
We can see why, though. The PS4 has a massive library of games and remains one of Sony’s most popular consoles. After all, the company still hasn’t given up on the PS3 either, as evidenced by the annual Blu-ray and security patches it receives.
In other PS4 news, the console continues to lose features, services, and support for popular games, which is unfortunate but understandable given its age. One of the biggest blows came recently when it was confirmed that Call of Duty will no longer support last-gen platforms.
We’ll update our readers if players notice any unannounced changes after today’s system software update.
Are any of our readers still playing on the PS4?
