PS5: Relapse launches by itself with WebKit Autoloader 0.6 and Y2JB Autoloader 1.0
By Tgames · · 2 min read
Two tools by itsPLK now launch Relapse and your PS5 homebrew automatically, from 7.00 to 13.60: WebKit Autoloader 0.6 and Y2JB Autoloader 1.0.
What an “autoloader” is for
Since the arrival of Relapse, a PS5 up to firmware 13.60 can run homebrew. But at every restart, you have to run the exploit again, then the elfldr loader, then your programs. The autoloaders byitsPLK chain these steps together: you launch the tool, and the chosen programs (etaHEN, FTP server…) then start on their own. Both tools gained Relapse this week.
WebKit Autoloader 0.6: through the browser
Released on 8 October 2026, as version 0.6.0 and then 0.6.1 the same day, it goes through the console’s browser.
Y2JB Autoloader 1.0: through the YouTube app
Y2JB is the exploit that goes through the console’s YouTube app. Version 1.0.0, from 9 October 2026, adds Relapse:
Which one to choose?
Both do the same job. WebKit Autoloader is the simplest if you were already running the exploit from the browser, and it keeps the offline Poops option. Y2JB Autoloader suits consoles that go through the YouTube app. In both cases, firmware 14.00 and later remains out of reach. To prepare the console, follow our PS5 jailbreak tutorial, then pick from our selection of PS5 homebrew.

WebKit Autoloader 0.6: through the browser
Released on 8 October 2026, as version 0.6.0 and then 0.6.1 the same day, it goes through the console’s browser.
- Two exploits to choose from: Relapse, from 7.00 to 13.60, and Poops, from 7.00 to 12.00. On firmwares covered by both, the installer asks which one to use.
- Relapse requires an active network connection, Wi-Fi or Ethernet, but no Internet access. Poops works entirely offline.
- On 9.05 and 11.40, Relapse does not work: Poops is installed instead. 0.6.1 fixes firmwares 9.05, 11.40 and 11.60, which were broken in 0.6.0.
- Firmwares 1.00 to 5.50 are no longer supported by this version; their return is not ruled out.
Y2JB Autoloader 1.0: through the YouTube app
Y2JB is the exploit that goes through the console’s YouTube app. Version 1.0.0, from 9 October 2026, adds Relapse:
- Relapse is used first from 8.00 to 13.60, except on 9.05 and 11.40, when a network connection is active.
- Without a network, or on 9.05, the tool falls back to the Lapse exploit, up to firmware 10.01.
- Relapse replaces P2JB, which is removed.
- Bundled with the tool: elfldr 0.26, kexp 0.8, unified-autoloader 0.1.5 and the Payload Manager 0.5.2 program manager.
