- The homebrew developer confirmed PS3 disc support is the next target following the PS2 breakthrough
Why it matters: Jailbroken PS5 owners gain native PS2 disc playback with 4K upscaling for legacy titles, and the same developer has already signaled PS3 emulation as the next step — extending the console's homebrew scene well beyond anything Sony officially permits.
