Here’s one more way the PS4 is better than the Xbox One

PlayStation 4 owners who also happen to love watching 3D content should know that Sony has just updated its new console to support 3D Blu-ray playback, the company revealed in a short tweet.

“PS4 System Software 1.75 is now ready to download. Get downloading!” the company wrote on its PlayStation Europe account, posting the image above that confirms 3D Blu-ray movies will be now supported on the console.

Like Sony, Microsoft is also interested in offering 3D Blu-ray playback support, but that will happen at some point in August, in a following software update for the Xbox One. Thus, PS4 obtained another victory in its battle with Microsoft’s console, albeit a small one, being the first to support 3D Blu-rays.

PS4 System Software 1.75 brings other features and improvements to console owners, in addition to 3D Blu-ray support, as follows below (via Neogaf):

  • Playback of Blu-ray 3D™ is now supported.

  • Sound quality has been improved during 1.5x playback with Blu-ray Disc™ and DVD videos.

  • System messages previously displayed on the top-right corner of the screen are now displayed on the top-left corner of the screen.

  • [Featured Content] has been added to (Settings) > [System] > [Automatic Downloads and Uploads].

  • When this setting is enabled, featured content from the PlayStation®Store is automatically downloaded while the PS4™ system is either powered on or in standby mode.

  • To download while in standby mode, go to (Settings) > [Power Save Settings] > [Set Functions Available in Standby Mode], and then turn on [Connect to the Internet].
