No Backporting PS5 games involves reverse engineering proprietary Sony PlayStation ELF/executable formats, decrypting packages, and patching SDK/firmware system calls to run on lower jailbroken firmware.
What it would actually take: A real version requires specialized console reverse engineering and exploitation expertise: unpacking encrypted PS5 PKG/PFS files, analyzing and disassembling Orbis/Prospero ELF binaries (using Ghidra/IDA Pro), and stubbing or patching newer kernel syscalls, dynamic libraries, and SDK APIs to maintain compatibility with older, jailbroken PS5 system firmware.
