PS5: 10 Awesome Features You Forgot It Had
2. Instantly Mute All Audio With One Button Press
Sometimes you might want or need to instantly mute all sound coming out of the PS5 but don't necessarily have the remote control for the TV nearby, but don't worry - Sony has got you covered with this little-known trick.
By holding in the microphone button - just below the PlayStation home button - for around one second, all PS5 system audio will be instantly muted, no matter if it's being played from a TV, your DualSense controller, or another device like headphones.
That's... extremely convenient if you just need to quickly shut the PS5 up for one of the many reasons that might arise.
Whether the TV remote isn't in close reach or you've got limited mobility, it's a terrific feature to have, yet one so many have no idea about whatsoever.
