Developer uses Claude to enable Xbox Cloud Gaming on jailbroken PS5s

Brazilian developer RafaelNGP has created a Homebrew called PSBox Cloud Gaming for jailbroken PS5 consoles, allowing Xbox Cloud Gaming to run natively. The mod, developed with assistance from AI, enables up to four DualSense controllers to be mapped to Xbox for compatibility. Rafael explains that users can easily download a .zip file from GitHub, extract it to a specific folder, wait for a Homebrew loader to mount the game, and then launch and sign in as usual.

The mod supports a 1080p60 stream and can be upscaled to 4K using PS5's GPU with AMD FSR 1 or Anime4K upscalers. While it has some video issues, many users are thrilled with the experience. Rafael even added support for Xbox Remote Play, allowing users to stream games from their existing Xbox to the PS5. Despite the PS5's limited exclusive library, the jailbreaking community has expanded its capabilities significantly.
