Another PS5 game published by Sony has received an exclusive update to support a recently introduced console feature. It took some time, but the update for Helldivers 2 that adds support for PS5’s Power Saver mode is now available for download.
Helldivers 2 finally adds PS5 Power Saver mode in update 1.006.102
“We’re excited to introduce a new Low Energy Mode for the PS5 version of Helldivers 2, now accessible in the settings menu,” stated Arrowhead Game Studios. “Activating this mode reduces your console’s power consumption during gameplay by limiting background activities and decreasing system resource usage during quiet moments and low-intensity scenes.”
Here’s what players on PS5 can expect, according to the official patch notes:
- Less power consumption during gaming and standby modes
- Slight reductions in fan activity and system temperatures
- No changes to gameplay performance or online features
To activate or deactivate Power Saver mode, simply go to the PS5 system menu: Settings > System > Power Saving > Use Power Saver.
While Arrowhead’s notes frame this update as part of Sony’s efforts toward environmental sustainability, rumors suggest there’s more behind the feature. Reports indicate that Power Saver mode might be tailored to enable PS5 games to run on an upcoming PlayStation portable device.
