Sony’s move to discontinue physical discs has sparked an intense competition among developers creating PS5 emulators. In a remarkable turnaround, one popular emulator, KytyPS5, has made significant strides, enabling players to complete Demon’s Souls Remake from start to finish. A YouTuber, Rain Kikyou, showcased this achievement, noting that while the emulation is still rough—with noticeable lag and bugs—it’s a groundbreaking development for a PS5-exclusive title.
For those testing this emulator, a high-end PC, potentially with an RTX 5090, is recommended to experience the game, albeit imperfectly. The rapid advancement in emulator technology is impressive, especially since just months ago, emulation was limited.
This progress underscores the value of PS5 exclusives running on emulators, as it may pave the way for smoother development of future titles. Optimism remains high for the availability of stable PS5 emulation by year-end, especially given the push began by Sony’s shift away from physical media toward digital.
