The days are growing shorter as we get closer to the launch of the next-gen PlayStation 4 console in Australia, and what better way to gear up some hype with the release of a new firmware update for PlayStation Vita.

One of big features coming in with the new update is an application called PS4 Link, which allows a PlayStation Vita to connect to the PlayStation 4 for Remote Play and Second Screen capabilities. Other changes include parental controls, a panoramic camera setting, application tweaks and more.

You can find the full list of changes for Firmware Update 3.00 over here, but Sony has also put up a handy video which you can find below on some of the more prominent features from the update.

For those counting down the days, the PlayStation 4 is now 24 days away, launching on November 29th in Australia and New Zealand.
