In 2015, the Planck Collaboration released an all-sky map of the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect, obtained by implementing the needlet internal linear combination (NILC) method on the Planck PR2 data. The quality of the Planck data has significantly improved since then. The Planck PR4 data release offers upgraded full-sky maps in the LFI and HFI frequency bands with improved systematics and sensitivity. We present a new all-sky thermal SZ Compton y-parameter map derived from the Planck PR4 data using NILC and highlight improvements, particularly in noise reduction and handling residual foreground contamination. The PR4 NILC Compton y-parameter map has been made publicly available to support further analyses.
