Xbox Cloud Gaming on PS5
Brazilian developer RafaelNGP created and released PSBox Cloud Gaming, a homebrew application for jailbroken PlayStation 5 consoles. This mod allows users to run Xbox Cloud Gaming natively on their PS5. The development of this application was partially aided by the AI model Claude.
Features and Compatibility
PSBox Cloud Gaming supports up to four DualSense controllers, which are mapped for Xbox compatibility. Users can sign in via their phone using a code displayed on the TV. The application currently streams at 1080p60 and can be upscaled to 4K using the PS5's GPU with AMD FSR 1 or Anime4K upscalers. Initial reports from testers indicate some video issues like macroblocking and pink artifacts, along with DualSense vibration problems, though many users report positive experiences.
Installation Process
Installation involves downloading a .zip file from GitHub, extracting it to a specific folder, and then using a Homebrew loader to mount and launch the application. Users then sign in to their Xbox account as usual.
Expanding Functionality with Xbox Remote Play
Following a user inquiry, RafaelNGP also added support for Xbox Remote Play to PSBox Cloud Gaming. This allows users to stream games from their own Xbox console to their PS5, further extending the console's capabilities beyond its original design.
