After the fiasco for what could be the PS4's biggest software update to date, Sony is now seriously looking into a follow-up that could fix the bigger issues of the PS4 2.0 Firmware Update. Touted to be the PS4 2.01 firmware update, this new one will be aimed to fix the issues of the infamous "Rest Mode."

GameSpot reports that this was made official via a tweet from the official PlayStation Twitter. However, Sony failed to mention a date for release of the PS4 2.01 software update. There is also no word yet on whether the other issues that have been reported for the latest update will be dealt with PS4 2.01 firmware update, but expect more details to trickle in the coming days.

Sony has also revealed its PS Plus lineup for November, and the latest update over the PlayStation Blog Europe has both good and bad news. The bad news is that the "Driveclub" PS Plus Edition will not be joining the lineup this month as it is not yet ready to launch.The good news is that apart from the November lineup, Sony has also advanced a sneak peek for fans on what they are planning to put in the Instant Game Collection come December and January.

First things first; the PS Plus November lineup is pretty much a confirmation of a previously leaked list. This includes "The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth" and "Steamworld Dig" for the PS4, "Frozen Synapse Prime" and "Luftrausers" for the PS3 and "The Hungry Horde" and "Escape Plan" for the PS Vita.

For December, fans of the DC brawler title "Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition" should prepare their PS4 as it will be bumped up to the instant Game Collection alongside "Secret Ponchos." When the new year rolls in, the first games that you can expect to play for the January PS Plus on the PS4 would be "inFamous: First Light" and "The Swapper" for the PS4.

Obviously, there will still be a couple more games that will be announced, since Sony has not yet mentioned what the game lineup would be for the PS3 and PS Vita for both months. Hopefully, "Driveclub" PS Plus Edition will be one of those "to be confirmed" games for the Instant Game Collection.
