PlayStation 4: Increase font size - how it works

If the TV is far away, increasing the font size of the PlayStation 4 can help. In this guide, we explain how to do this.

Increase font size on PlayStation 4

You can increase the font size in the system settings on the PlayStation 4 since the firmware update 2.50.

• First open the system settings on your PlayStation 4 and then the menu item "Accessibility".
• Here you will now find some options with which you can make the font more clearly recognizable.
• First check the "Larger text" option. Also, select the "Bold" option if the size is still not enough for you.
• You can also use the "High Contrast" option to darken the menu screens so that the font is clearly highlighted.
• If you have enormous eye problems, we recommend the "Zoom" option. If you activate this feature, you can use the PlayStation and square buttons to zoom into any menu screen and display the texts much larger.

For the functions mentioned above, your PlayStation 4 must have firmware 2.50 or newer. In another article, we explain how you can perform a firmware update on the PlayStation 4.
