According to Fernicola, the PS3 "unit itself needed a hacked firmware loaded" and the PS4 doesn't.Īccording to a commenter on the UOL Jogos Facebook page (before UOL Jogos took the information down), via Wololo, the PS4 game hack isn't a hack, per se. UOL received two accounts and 10 random games as part of the information dump onto their PS4 console.īrett Fernicola, Stealthbuilt Technologies' CISO, essentially confirmed this information via Tech News Talk when he talked about the differences between the PS3 game hack and the PS4 game hack. UOL Jogos went to a Brazilian game retailer selling the PlayStation 4 game hack service and confirmed the hack is real. Furthermore, according to a Brazilian website UOL Jogos(via Google Translate), Sony has no way of knowing whether the hacked PS4 was playing pirated games or not – even if playing online.
The Raspberry Pi method is simply a way to play pirated games on a retail PlayStation 4 console. What makes this PlayStation game hack even more desirable for PS4 owners is that it is not a hack or a jailbreak in the same way other consoles are hacked or jailbroken, according to GameZone.īecause the Raspberry Pi method does not touch any actual code, nothing is being hacked or jailbroken in the true, legal sense of the words. At $15 a piece in Brazil, PS4 owners are saving a bundle of money. PlayStation 4 owners would likely find the game hack worth the risk of a suspended account or worse, as authentic PS4 games cost upwards of $60 or more. Reportedly developed by Russians and publicized by Brazilian retailers, it only takes a Raspberry Pi and three days to recreate the hack.Īccording to Tech Times, anyone with a PS4 can copy its BIOS/NAN, game database, and operating system onto a $99 Raspberry Pi, and transfer the copy to another PS4 – as many as someone would want.īrazilian retailers publicized the PS4 game hack last week when they offered to recreate it for consumers for anywhere from $100 to $150 for the service, with 10 pirated games included, according to Wololo. A new PlayStation 4 game hack allows game pirates to share PS4 games and consoles essentially without limit, according to GameZone.
