What's new.
Every release, newest first.

The release notes of AnyPS5-ARM (the Mac launcher, the engine and the phone app) and AnyPS5 Desktop (Windows and Linux), as they are published on GitHub, with each release's files.

  1. AnyPS5 Desktop

    0.1.1

    LatestAnyPS5 Desktop 0.1.1 (Windows + Linux preview)

    AnyPS5 Desktop 0.1.1: the engine now downloads itself. On first start, press Download the AnyPS5 engine and the launcher fetches AnyPS5's toolkit for your system, checks it and sets it up. No more arranging files by hand.

    This is still an early preview. Please report what works and what doesn't in the issues.

    What's new

    • Engine download: checked against GitHub's checksums, resumes if the connection drops, and keeps a few versions side by side. Settings → AnyPS5 Engine checks for engine updates, switches versions, or uses your own folder. A newer engine offers games an "update available" re-unlock.
    • Installers: a Windows setup, an AppImage and a .deb, with the AnyPS5 icon.
    • Linux: the AnyTogether sign-in is kept even when no desktop keyring is running.

    What it does

    • Library: finds the decrypted copies of your games in one folder, with their names, icons and backgrounds
    • Unlock and play with the AnyPS5 engine; saves and trophies kept per game
    • Per-game settings and controls: resolution, window or full screen, keyboard layout
    • Trophies and save backups
    • AnyTogether: sign in with an email code, a passkey (through the website) or one tap from your phone. Friends, profiles, play time and trophies, messages, parties and voice chat, and joining a friend's game (anytogether.kodla.agency)
    • The AnyPS5 Remote phone app pairs with it. Using the phone as a controller in games needs an engine built from AnyPS5-ARM; upstream's engine doesn't support it yet.

    Install

    Windows 10/11 (x64): run AnyPS5-Desktop-Setup-0.1.1-x64.exe. It installs for your user, no admin needed, with a Start menu shortcut and an uninstaller. SmartScreen may say "Windows protected your PC": click More info → Run anyway. Portable: unzip AnyPS5-Desktop-windows-x64.zip and run anyps5_desktop.exe.

    Linux (x64):

    • AppImage: chmod +x AnyPS5-Desktop-0.1.1-x86_64.AppImage, then run it.
    • Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt install ./anyps5-desktop_0.1.1_amd64.deb.
    • Archive: unpack the .tar.gz and run AnyPS5-Desktop/anyps5_desktop.
    • The launcher runs on glibc 2.34+ (Ubuntu 22.04 or newer). Games run through AnyPS5's current Linux engine, which needs glibc 2.38+ (Ubuntu 24.04, Debian 13, Fedora 39 or newer).

    Then open the launcher, press Download the AnyPS5 engine, choose your games folder and allow the firewall prompt if you want to pair your phone.

    Requirements: a CPU and GPU that AnyPS5 supports (see upstream), and decrypted copies of games you own.

  2. AnyPS5 Desktop

    0.1.0

    AnyPS5 Desktop 0.1.0 (Windows + Linux preview)

    The first builds of AnyPS5 Desktop for Windows and Linux: the AnyPS5-ARM launcher for PCs, with the same PS5-style home screen.

    This is an early preview. The launcher itself is built and tested, but it hasn't yet been tried with real games on many PCs. Please report what works and what doesn't in the issues.

    What it does

    • Library: finds the decrypted dumps of your games in one folder, with their names, icons and backgrounds
    • Unlock and play: turns a dump into a copy AnyPS5 can run with the toolkit's relinker, then starts it; saves and trophies are kept per game
    • Per-game settings and controls: keyboard layout, resolution, window or full screen
    • Trophies and save backups
    • AnyTogether: sign in with an email code or a passkey through the website, plus friends, presence, play time and trophies on your profile, messages, parties and voice chat, and joining a friend's game (anytogether.kodla.agency)
    • The phone app pairs with it (AnyPS5 Remote). Using the phone as a controller in games needs a toolkit built from the AnyPS5-ARM engine; upstream's toolkit doesn't support it yet.

    Install (Windows 10/11, x64)

    1. Download AnyPS5-Desktop-Setup-0.1.0-x64.exe and run it: it installs for your user (no admin needed), with a Start menu shortcut and an uninstaller. Windows SmartScreen may say "Windows protected your PC": click More info → Run anyway. Prefer no install? AnyPS5-Desktop-windows-x64.zip is the portable version: unzip and run anyps5_desktop.exe.
    2. Get the AnyPS5 toolkit for Windows from boykopovar/AnyPS5 releases: put relinker-v0.1.3.exe (renamed to relinker.exe) and the contents of prx-windows-v0.1.3.zip (the libs folder) together in one folder, then choose that folder when the launcher asks for the toolkit.
    3. Choose your games folder. Allow the firewall prompt if you want to pair your phone.

    Install (Linux, x64)

    1. AppImage (any distro): download AnyPS5-Desktop-0.1.0-x86_64.AppImage, chmod +x it and run it. Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt install ./anyps5-desktop_0.1.0_amd64.deb, then start AnyPS5 Desktop from your apps. Or unpack AnyPS5-Desktop-linux-x64.tar.gz and run AnyPS5-Desktop/anyps5_desktop. It needs GTK 3 and glibc 2.34 or newer (Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12, Fedora 35, Steam Deck, Arch or newer).
    2. Get the Linux toolkit from boykopovar/AnyPS5 releases: relinker-v0.1.3 (renamed to relinker, made executable) and the contents of prx-linux-v0.1.3.tar.gz (the libs folder) in one folder, then choose it in the launcher.
    3. Optional: install libsecret-tools so the AnyTogether sign-in is kept in your desktop keyring.

    Requirements: a CPU and GPU that AnyPS5 supports (see upstream), and decrypted dumps of games you own.
