Jailbroken PS5 Runs PS2 and Xbox Emulators

Jailbroken PS5 consoles now run PS5X2 and XPSemu, ports of the PCSX2 (PS2) and xemu (Xbox) emulators. PS5X2 already offers Vulkan GPU acceleration with many games at full speed, while XPSemu is only at Alpha 1. A Wine port dubbed PS5 Proton is also in the works but has no public releases.

• PS5X2 ports PCSX2 with PS5Vulkan acceleration, many games run at full speed
• XPSemu based on xemu reached Alpha 1; Halo 2 runs, compatibility still shaky
• PS5 Proton project is porting Wine, no public builds yet
• Emulators can't read discs directly, requiring disc images on the SSD
