Update 5.50 Beta is out today for the PS4, and brings with a new feature called "Play Time Management." Building on the "Family Managers" controls introduced in 5.00, the new update allows Family Managers to set limits on when and for how long each individual child can play for. Control can be done from the console, or from a web browser to adjust settings, and check your child's playtime each day.
Cool addition that I'm sure a lot of parents will appreciate. Parent's used to be a lot more hands on, I remember they used to just walk up and turn off the console, then take the controllers if that didn't get the message across. Kids today will never know the pain of not having saves or checkpoints.
Notifications will be sent to children during gameplay so that they know when they should save and quit. The family managers/guardians can also set the PS4 to log out once the playtime session is over, and increase or decrease game time on the go, via the web portal.
