Comments from the team
This is the first time the PS5 has been successfully hacked. But for anyone who expects it to be the gateway to piracy games. I must say that it is still very far from the truth. As the device firmware must be an older version. And of course, the new version has already filled in the gaps.
Not to mention the matter of modifying the firmware to be able to play game ROMs or create an emulator to use on a jailbreak-enabled device, and most importantly, if you have to use the PlayStation 5 to play, copy it and you can’t connect online. (Because if connected online, the device will have to update the version), it seems that there is no use playing.
