Jailbroken PS5s Can Now Emulate PS2 Games Using Physical Discs

A new version of the PCSX2 emulator called PS5SX2 can be installed on jailbroken PlayStation 5 consoles, and version 2.01 lets users dump physical PS2 discs directly to the SSD to emulate them. Because the PS5's disc drive cannot read CDs, blue-tinted PS2 discs and PS1 discs cannot be used. Lead coder Swordpdf has also announced that a PS5SX3 emulator for dumping PS3 games from disc is in the works.
