Your PS5 can now emulate PS2 games at up to 120 FPS, strings attached

TL;DR Popular PS2 emulator for PS5, PS5SX2, just received its v2.00 update, introducing built-in frame generation (up to 120fps), up to 8x resolution scaling on PS5 Pro, one-click HD texture packs, and restored online multiplayer for some games.

The update comes on the back of the recent Relapse exploit that makes it fairly easy to jailbreak a PS5 as long as it is running firmware v13.60 or lower.

The PS5 jailbreak community has seen a surge in activity this month, most of it riding the back of the new Relapse exploit , which allows any PlayStation 5 with firmware version 13.60 or earlier to be successfully jailbroken. This firmware was released in July 2026, so as long as you skipped the recent v14.xx updates, you can quite easily run homebrew apps and even a Nintendo Switch emulator on your PS5 . If you need even more reason to consider jailbreaking your PS5, one of the most popular PS2 emulators just received a massive upgrade that lets you play classic PS2 games on your current console.

Developer sword_pdf has rolled out PS5SX2 v2.00 , a major update to the standalone PlayStation 2 emulator built for jailbroken PS5 consoles.
