By Tgames · · 2 min read
2026 update: griches also ports Eternal Darkness to PS5, and Ninja Gaiden II arrives thanks to ReXGlue; read on in our news story Ninja Gaiden II and Eternal Darkness running natively on jailbroken PS5.
Developer griches ports Wind Waker, Super Mario Sunshine and Doom 3 BFG natively to jailbroken PS5, at 3840×2160 and 60 fps, from your own games.
Three ports in three days
This is not emulation: these three games are compiled for the PS5 from projects that rebuilt their source code. The ports reuse the architecture of the Dusklight PS5 port, and none of them contains game data: you have to supply your own.
Zelda The Wind Waker
Super Mario Sunshine
Doom 3 BFG Edition
Good to know
The author himself warns that these versions are barely tested: each was played on a single console, and only at the start of the game. Keep a copy of your saves. You need a PS5 that runs homebrews (etaHEN or equivalent, ShadowMountPlus and an FTP server), so a firmware up to 13.60 with Relapse. On PC, these GameCube games can be played with Dolphin. And the wave of decompilations continues, see Super Mario Galaxy.
