Confirming the leaked information from last week (http://www.engadget.com/2015/03/06/sonys-testing-a-ps4-update-that-lets-you-pick-up-your-game-wher/), Sony announced tonight (http://blog.us.playstation.com/2015/03/11/ps4-update-2-50-yukimura-preview-suspendresume-and-more/) that it's testing a big update for the PS4. Codenamed "Yukimura", v2.50 it will add the Suspend/Resume feature we've been awaiting since before the system launched (http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/20/sony-details-playstation-4-specs-8-core-amd-jaguar-cpu-8x-bl/). That feature will let gamers put the system in standby, then come right back and resume playing like nothing happened. According to a blog post the feature will be supported by "almost" all PS4 games, although there's no word yet on which ones. We're also getting the ability to upgrade PSN sub-accounts to Master accounts (especially useful for gamers that have gone from kids to adults (http://www.engadget.com/2015/02/13/psn-account-upgrade/) since the PS3 launched), 60fps Remote Play (http://www.engadget.com/2013/11/05/playstation-4-vita-remote-play-video/) / Share Play (http://www.engadget.com/2014/10/25/ps4-game-sharing-explainer/) and the ability to find the PSN account of your Facebook friends.
