Hello World! I've been reporting on Sony PlayStation hacking news since 2000 and started PSXHAX in 2014 to cover PlayStation (PSX), PlayStation 2 (PS2), PlayStation 3 (PS3), PlayStation 4 (PS4), PlayStation Portable (PSP), PlayStation Vita (PS Vita), PlayStation TV (PS TV) and next-gen PlayStation 5 (PS5) platforms along with anything else of interest.

Aaaand we’re back, after an extended delay, to … continue talking about hacking PS4 peripherals.
This time, the DUT is the PS4 Virtual Reality peripheral: PSVR. We managed to find some major flaws - breaking secure boot and extracting all key material; let’s go!
Yet another PS4 peripheral?
Digging into the PSVR was initially done in anticipation of the PS5 release after it was announced that PS5 would maintain compatibility with PSVR, thinking it could be a possible initial entrypoint for PS5. While it didn’t wind up being used as such, it was still pretty fun to hack (sound familiar?). And who knows, maybe the attack surface is useful in some way.
Since the previous batch of PlayStation 5 videos, here's the latest PS5 Game Trailers spotlighting the tactical adventure Miasma Chronicles for those in the PS5Scene to check out below.
Rage Among the Stars Launch PS5 Trailer
Survive the perils of a strange planet to find your way home!
Inspired by the unforgiving challenge of old-school classics, Rage Among the Stars is a throwback to a harsher time in gaming. Featuring 40 rage-inducing levels packed with devious traps, near impossible jumps, mighty bosses and fewer checkpoints than you’d probably like, everything is fine-tuned to immerse players in the “rage game” experience.
The result is an immense sense of accomplishment in completing each level. Rage Among the Stars for PS4 and PS5 launches on May 10th.
