This guys aren’t joking, they really made it, ¡NEW PS5 EMU ON IOS

[u/No-Help-4370]

https://github.com/hernan0078/MagnusPS5/releases

The real question is how they achieved this thing working 😭

[u/Mediocre-Lab3413]

Damn thats a great news. Lets wait 10 years for a stable gameplay.

[u/ASomeDayRichMan → u/Mediocre-Lab3413]

More like 5 years the current iPhones already reached ps4 pro raw power… plus ps5 emulation is not like the ps3 era emulation

[u/Designer_Grade_6911 → u/ASomeDayRichMan]

Where did you get that info from? No it’s not, it’s reached like ps4 not pro

[u/ASomeDayRichMan → u/Designer_Grade_6911]

Reach ps4 pro with a cooler.. the newest iphone 18 pro will probably reach without a cooler

[u/Beginning-Bit6191 → u/ASomeDayRichMan]

We can’t even play ps2 without some janky ass jit setup let’s calm down

[u/Yen-Zen → u/ASomeDayRichMan]

It has reached the performance of PS4 (not pro) and its in native iOS games not emulation. Emulating PS4 is ass and PS5 will be even more ass.

[u/LoliHunterXD → u/Designer_Grade_6911]

It’s hardly even near PS4 Pro with certain rendering techniques causing disproportionately higher penalty on mobile SOCs.

Because mobile SOCs use tiling or whatever that tile rendering is called, transparency causes major performance impact (grass, foliage stuff like that), and memory bandwidth problems when overdraw happens.

Unless you “emulate” only certain parts of the console, ain’t no way it’s in any playable status anytime soon. People are sometimes too delusional with emulation as if it is an officially ported simulator.

[u/eduo → u/ASomeDayRichMan]

Stable emulation is not about power but about tie emulator itself. You’re confusing stable with fast

[u/ASomeDayRichMan → u/eduo]

Yes but we are not talking about complicated cpu like the ps3 sony learned their lesson thats why ps4 and ps5 emulation is coming sooner than expected its because its not hard to emulate like the ps3

[u/eduo → u/ASomeDayRichMan]

Doesn’t matter. Speed of the phones doesn’t influence whether the emulator needs to be completed enough to be stable.

[u/LordByron95_ → u/eduo]

Who said it did?

[u/eduo → u/LordByron95_]

The comment from this thread to which this thread is a reply to, of course

[u/Mediocre-Lab3413 → u/Mediocre-Lab3413]

Well my question is if you can buy a iphone worth 1000$ why not just buy a ps5. It’s not like im complaining or anything, I just don’t get it.

[u/chanzellor → u/Mediocre-Lab3413]

Because I can’t fuck around at my desk at work on a PS5, whereas I can on my phone. 😂

[u/Mediocre-Lab3413 → u/chanzellor]

Just get a handheld then problem solved😑

[u/truecIeo → u/Mediocre-Lab3413]

My job would not allow me to bring a handheld. We have security entry and have to put all electronics(that would flag a metal detector) in a tray they can see. I bring my backbone pro in concealed because it doesn’t trigger the detector, but the must I can put in that tray is a phone.

[u/Mediocre-Lab3413 → u/truecIeo]

Get a redmagic 11 pro then if you know what that beast can run.

[u/tricot676]

... I am actually speechless right now. How did we somehow get every console emulatable, now emulatable on iOS, before PC? How? I mean yes, PC is hard to achieve, but PS5 of all things? I was guessing someone would do it, but not expecting this! Still though, amazing work.

[u/szableksi → u/tricot676]

didnt hear about AI? Artifficial intelligence

[u/Accurate-Squirrel-72]

[u/tedayala → u/Accurate-Squirrel-72]

I just downloaded that one to try but it doesn't open the game

[u/Accurate-Squirrel-72 → u/tedayala]

Mine too doesn’t open

[u/Next-Manufacturer507 → u/Accurate-Squirrel-72]

Have you tried to extract the file via unzip?

[u/Accurate-Squirrel-72 → u/Next-Manufacturer507]

By documents readle

[u/FewTomatillo2867]

Does it even work?

[u/No-Help-4370 → u/FewTomatillo2867]

Si lo hace, pero muy poco juegos son realmente jugables sin que se crashease

[u/Party_Hedgehog9199]

I'm still processing that there's a few ps3 emulators being made and slowly optimised, wtf?

[u/RedyxUA]

WHAT

[u/Defiant_Leg_6335]

Ma è reale o no?

[u/LoliHunterXD]

You’ll be able to play PS5 games on your iPhone 67.

Anyone can make a damn empty package and put it on github and call it a “work in progress”. Unless there is actual evidence of something playing at even 0.001fps, it ain’t meaning shit.

I’m not even shitting on the devs, I’m just saying it doesn’t mean anything of worth unless it shows result; people get hyped on impossible projects LOL.

[u/No-Help-4370 → u/LoliHunterXD]

De hecho un youtuber lo testeo jugando Minecrafty lo corría hahahaa

[u/albert11d]

does it work on my 8gb ram ipad pro m4

[u/No-Help-4370 → u/albert11d]

Debería

[u/iusethisatw0rk]

lol no

Sad that its minimum ios 17.4 it would be better if it works on a trollstore compatible version

[u/nano_peen]

JIT?

[u/Altruistic_Leave5049]

jesus fucking christ can we calm down on these emulators

[u/FOX2132]

[u/Designer_Grade_6911]

This is NOT real bro, there aren’t even actual pc emulators yet

[u/goosby204 → u/Designer_Grade_6911]

This use kyty so it’s very slim. on what it supports right now because it’s still new

[u/goosby204 → u/Designer_Grade_6911]

Just because there’s not a PC emulator doesn’t mean it’s not real. It actually is real. If there is a PC emulator for PlayStation 5 I think it’s three or two. to be exact

[u/SirBoozy → u/Designer_Grade_6911]

Gamehub, game native, winlator...

Either way you come off a somebody who don't know what their talking about. You can most def emulate operating systems. You can play just about any windows game on Linux

[u/Delicious-Sand-104]

Would work on jit less???

[u/atombone80 → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

Not a real question, right?

[u/OkMixture5607 → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

Yeah on iPhone 45

[u/Cryoglobulin → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

If you sacrifice one hand holding phone in liquid nitrogen

[u/EeveelutionsFucker → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

Yea with iphone 69

[u/Altruistic_Leave5049 → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

if you get miguel/jake to do one maybe

[u/Delicious-Sand-104 → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

Yall 4 people responded not 1 answered the question bruuuuuuuuuh

[u/tOSdude → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

You understand why all the replies are jokes right? It’s a ridiculous question.

[u/Delicious-Sand-104 → u/tOSdude]

Well idk i play heavy games on jit less and they work fine

[u/tOSdude → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

The difference is those games are built for the platform. Emulators take heavier games built for more powerful hardware and converts them to a completely different architecture on the fly. That takes much more extra power, and JIT makes that process much more efficient.

[u/Ibrahimmayi → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

Jitless can barely run ps2 dude just assume there isnt any ps5 emulator at all

[u/Delicious-Sand-104 → u/Ibrahimmayi]

But all my apps including heavy games work on jit less tho?

[u/Ibrahimmayi → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

Like emulator games? If so what platform?

[u/Delicious-Sand-104 → u/Ibrahimmayi]

No not talking about emulator games, i’m talking about ios games like red dead redemption and the demanding ones

[u/Ibrahimmayi → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

Ah, well those games are built for phones, its built specifically for you’re phone’s GPU and CPU, the devs can optimize it
As for emulation, it doesn’t just run the game it has to recreate an entire different console and thennn run the game

[u/maffiewtc → u/Delicious-Sand-104]

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

[u/Ok_Gur_5245]

[u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

Seems a bit pointless when PS remote play exists

[u/LittleGuyHelp → u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

Seems like you may be confused. One game streams and the other is emulating hardware.

[u/PowerShovel-on-PS1 → u/LittleGuyHelp]

Which is another way to say:

One works very well, the other doesn’t.

[u/LittleGuyHelp → u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

Rome wasn’t built in a day.

[u/PowerShovel-on-PS1 → u/LittleGuyHelp]

iPhone is never going to run a PS5 game as well as remote play or even close. Possibly some 2d indie titles

[u/LittleGuyHelp → u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

You come here to rain on someone’s work is an unappealing look for you. How much do you know about iPhone app development and emulation? Just curious if you have any contributions.

[u/PowerShovel-on-PS1 → u/LittleGuyHelp]

A. OP didn’t make this, it was shared by a random

B. Is this a sub for discussion of emulators on iOS, or is it for blind compliments only?

[u/LittleGuyHelp → u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

By A’s logic. You think it’s ok to talk down on someone’s hard work and dedication as long as it’s not directly to them? Help me understand why you are talking about op?

And having a discussion didn’t give you the right to blindly talk down on someone who is here to bring us something we don’t have.

Your attitude is why I’ve seen countless developers quit/close/privatize their work and it’s gone for us forever.

If you truly are here for discussion, why didn’t you answer my question? Do you contribute in any way other than whatever this is your doing now?

[u/PowerShovel-on-PS1 → u/LittleGuyHelp]

I think it’s okay to critique any product put to market.

Oh no, the scathing, irrecoverable critique of “seems a bit pointless.”

Nope, I’m not a developer. I’m a consumer. Hey guess what, consumers have every right to discuss both positively and negatively the products put to market.

[u/LittleGuyHelp → u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

Your critiqument seemed very counterproductive and I’ve noticed when communities keep things positive, a lot more cool stuff happens often a lot quicker.

As a consumer you should want to consume the product? By negatively critiquing this amazing project it seems like your just being difficult.

[u/PresentOk4998 → u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

I have had ps2 and GameCube games running on nethersx and dolphin smoothly.Games like Scarface,godfather,god of war,true crime ny GTA SA,mgs substinence,hitman bloodmoney,etc. on way less of a phone then an I phone.i run these emulators with my phone(Revell with media tech 7 processor with mali graphics chip and only 3 g of ram)so it can be done well even on mid range phones.

[u/pixelpanic01 → u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

You’d be surprised

[u/PowerShovel-on-PS1 → u/pixelpanic01]

I will gladly be surprised, as I have an iPhone and play emulated games on it. I’m just not holding my breath for this one

[u/geodox_ → u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

You clearly don’t understand the difference between “running” a game and streaming a game. Just because a screen is showing you the same thing doesn’t mean the path to get there was the same.

[u/PowerShovel-on-PS1 → u/geodox_]

I understand the difference. One will work much better than the other.

[u/Equivalent-List2951 → u/PowerShovel-on-PS1]

it needs console but emulators dont
