Upcoming PS5 SDK Version Update

Hello.

I’ve confirmed that the PS5 SDK version in Unreal Engine 5.7 is currently 11.00. Could you let me know if there are any plans to upgrade this to SDK 12.00 or 13.00, and if so, when?

Sony has informed us that submissions will require SDK version 12.00 or higher starting approximately one month from now, so we’d like to know the planned timeline for this SDK version update.

If there are no plans to update in the near future, we’d also like to ask whether it would be safe for our dev team to update the SDK on our own, and whether doing so could cause any conflicts with future engine updates.

Thank you.

I can confirm I’ve been building projects like CitySample in Unreal 5.7 using SDK 12 for a few months now so you “should” be fine, but I’m more interested in the upcoming SDK 13, and how soon 5.7 , or a future 5.8 will support it.
