Looks like PlayStation Home is growing up. Moving well beyond its original beta status, Home will reach version 1.3 this fall. The "serious upgrade" will add a number of features to the online PSN community. Most importantly is universal game launching, which finally gives players the ability to jump into any PS3 game directly from Home. Tired of shopping for virtual clothes? You can relax by jumping into a session of Noby Noby Boy, if you'd like.

Another nifty feature is a brand new in-world camera that allows you to snap pictures of Home happenings. This will be a free update for all of Home's denizens, so don't whip out your PlayStation wallet just yet. Best of all, the pictures you take in Home will be stored on your PS3's hard drive, so you can relive your best virtual dance moves whenever you'd like.

Speaking of dance moves, Home will also feature a few more emotes for your avatar to take advantage of. Finally! We can go totally Harvey Dent on people and flip a coin. For all the small details, read more on the PlayStation.Blog.
