Sony Announces End of PlayStation 3 (PS3) Partial Message Service
Proceeding their PS3 End of Production a few years back, Sony of Japan announced the end of PlayStation 3's partial message service as of June 30, 2020. ☠️

This means message functions between PlayStation 3 (PS3) and other platforms including PlayStation 4 (PS4), PlayStation Messages App, My PlayStation and PlayStation Vita (PS Vita) won't be able to send messages to PS3 nor display alerts between them.

Here's more from the official Press Release, to quote roughly translated: It will not be available as follows:

Cannot be used to:
  • Send messages from PS3 to other platforms.
  • Send messages from other platforms to PS3.
  • Display of game alerts between PS3 on PS4 / PlayStation Messages App.
The message function between PS3 and the message function between platforms other than PS3 can still be used.

We apologize for any inconvenience, but we appreciate your understanding. It will end sequentially from that date. The end timing may change depending on the region.

In summary, those still using their PlayStation 3 entertainment system will no longer be able to message friends who play on PS4 and PS Vita consoles... inevitably Sony will eventually end all PS3 support as the console initially launched in Japan on November 11th, 2006 and will be 14 years old this fall. :confused:

Special Thanks to IDC for finding the Buffers/IV/Flag and implementation suggestions

... Oh and I guess Zecoxao as well

This tool is for decrypting .env files that are found on the PS4 filesystem.

Instructions
  1. Obtain the PS4 Envelope Keys and overwrite the 0's in the python script.
  2. Find an encrypted .env file from an extracted PUP and run the script!

Check out both the Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy PS4 launch trailer and gameplay videos below, and to quote from Marketing Specialist Mallie Rust on the details:

Welcome, Padawan, to the Jedi Academy. Here you will undergo training in the ways of the Jedi, from using the Force to defending yourself with a lightsaber.

You will learn more about yourself than you can possibly imagine but remember: the path to the dark side is ever present. Let the light guide you in all of your decisions.

The first step in your journey to becoming a Jedi Master is creating your character. Customize your species, appearance, and gender before entering the Academy to learn the power and dangers of the Force.

No Jedi is complete without the Jedi weapon of choice: the lightsaber. You’ll forge your own lightsaber from handle to blade, choosing from nine hilts and five saber colors. As you progress, discover the power of wielding two lightsabers or the ultimate double-bladed lightsaber made famous by Darth Maul.

Of course, your lightsaber combat ability isn’t the only thing that will evolve on your path to becoming a true Jedi. As you become more attuned to the Force, new powers will be granted and your existing powers can rise in rank. Experienced Jedi can use the Force to heal, enhance their combat abilities, and leverage the classic Jedi Mind Trick.

Once you’ve entered the Academy, you’ll learn from the greatest Jedi Masters in the galaxy and experience the next...
Predator: Hunting Grounds PS4 Trial Weekend Begins March 27th, Details
This weekend the Predator: Hunting Grounds PS4 4v1 multiplayer trial begins and will be available to download on March 27th in Japan at 3pm JST, in Europe at 4pm GMT and in North America at 5pm PST. :D

Below are the latest Predator: Hunting Grounds PS4 trailer videos alongside all the deets courtesy of IllFonic Lead Designer Jordan Mathewson, to quote:

You will get to immerse yourself into the Predator universe as either the Predator or a member of an elite 4-person Fireteam.

Each with their own set of weapons, abilities and tactics to survive. Whether you’re playing on your PS4 or PC during the trial this weekend, you will be spending time in one of our multiple maps, called Overgrowth.

The Map

Nestled deep in the South American mountains lies Overgrowth. As you enter the map you will feel the claustrophobic environment of the dense jungle. It will make you feel a bit lost as you try to make your way on the jungle ground or up in the trees, depending which character you are playing as.

This hot, remote jungle location harbors a significant presence of hostile guerrilla forces and operatives from the rogue Project Stargazer, a former government program now attempting to gain financially from discovering alien tech. Both Fireteam and Predator players will have to contend against these dangerous enemies while facing each other.

The occupation of this hidden valley has uncovered a wealth of hidden ancient ruins surrounding a winding river. Something about this location seems to allow temperatures to climb higher than just about anywhere else in these mountains… a perfect place for the Predator to hunt.

Team up against the Predator

If you choose to play as a member of the Fireteam, know this isn’t your average group of soldiers. This group is elite and extremely deadly. While taking on the Predator one on one is very difficult, as a group you can work together to turn the tables on the hunter, or to complete the mission and escape.

Each time you enter the jungle, one of a number of missions is randomly selected to present a constantly shifting gameplay experience. Each mission consists of multiple smaller objectives that must be completed in order to get to the chopper.

In one mission, you and your team are asked to cut off fuel to the local guerrillas, who are buying massive fuel shipments from an elusive black...
PS4 Backup And Restore (BAR) Keys & Envelope Files Documented
While many are patiently awaiting further details on the PS4 6.20 Kxploit in development, today PlayStation 4 scene developers @RedEyeX32 via @zecoxao shared Cipher and Hasher PS4 Backup And Restore (BAR) Kernel Keys while 3226:2143 (aka IDC) documented containers referred to as Envelope Files used in encrypting and signing messages.

Based on the current findings, they were likely introduced around PS4 Firmware FW 3.00 (>2.56 <=3.50), noting that the messages are encrypted using AES128 in CBC mode and signed using a public key.

backup and restore decrypt (and encrypt?) utility

Credits
  • RedEye32 (for the structs)
  • Zer0xFF (for some improvement in code)
  • PixelButts (for testing)
  • idc (for the hasher key correct size)
  • and to anonymous (for everything you did and have done in the past)
Usage

compile it and simply place it near the archives and run it. it'll produce some blobs. support for bigger blobs is in process...
