It is hard to believe that the PS5 is two years old while thousands of people still can't get a hold of the console. The PS5 has been subject to supply shortages and scalpers. Many may not have the PS5, but a hacker has finally managed to jailbreak the console.

A hacker group known as Fail0verflow has managed to infiltrate the system software in the past, but none of the hacks have allowed the players to install packages, until now. Installing custom packages is considered a top-tier jailbreak. The Fail0verflow decryption hack was done back during PS5's launch in 2020.

Recently, a notorious hacker known as Lance McDonald shared his newly jailbroken PS5 console on his Twitter, showing off some of the new PS5 settings, including developer options and tools. These options are never available without a jailbreak.

The highlight of the showcase video was the ability to install new packages. The packages are essentially game setup files. This was seen at the end of the video, where Lance installs the demo version of Silent Hills P.T. The game has been officially delisted from the PlayStation store, and there was no way for anyone to play the demo again, except, of course, now.
