Sony has confirmed that PS3 firmware update 2.41 is now available for download.

Last week Sony was forced to withdraw update 2.4 following technical issues on the day of release.

In a post on the US PlayStation blog, PSN boss Eric Lempel has stated the update was recalled "because, for a limited number of users, the XMB wouldn't display after the update was installed".

The problem has been fixed, according to Lempel. "We want to extend our apologies to the PlayStation community for any inconvenience," he wrote.

The update brings XMB and Trophy features to the PlayStation 3.
