Formatting your PS4 is easy! Go to Settings > Initialization > Initialize PS4. Choose either Quick or Full initialization. Quick is faster but less secure, while Full wipes everything completely!

Just go to Settings, pick Initialization, then Initialize PS4. Choose Quick for a fast wipe or Full for a thorough clean.
Settings > Initialization > Initialize PS4. Simple as that.
Settings > Initialization > Initialize PS4. Choose Full for a complete factory reset. Done!
From personal experience, make sure to backup your data first. Then head to Settings, select Initialization, and pick Initialize PS4. Easy peasy.
