There’s Only One Way the PS5 Jailbreak Wars Can End

On Wednesday, Sony pushed yet another PlayStation 5 patch to consoles, the second update in only a few days. The 1.2GB 26.07-14.20 update “improved the messages and usability on some screens.” In all likelihood, the update is yet another attempt to quash the PS5 jailbreak efforts that have run like a freight train through Sony’s locked-down console ecosystem. In this age when any coding-illiterate individual can use vibe coding to crowbar their way into their gadgets, Sony is destined to continue this war forever unless something changes.

The PS5 modding scene is alive and well, especially after last month when the first big jailbreak hit the scene for patch 7.00-13.60. The easily accessible jailbreak allowed practically any PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Pro console to access full game libraries without having to pay for anything (note: Gizmodo does not advise or condone piracy). Sony’s 14.10 patch was supposed to lock out these modders, requiring them to update their firmware if they wanted to access any online features. Locking down its ecosystem was especially important for Sony with Grand Theft Auto VI on the horizon.

10, at least according to a video published on X by the modder Gezine . While that modified jailbreak still isn’t open to the wider internet, it shows that this modding scene isn’t slowing down. 20, though—based on the rapid speed of these latest jailbreaks—I suspect they’ll have a good shot.
