Archiving and Backup Basics The landscape for PS4 archiving has shifted significantly
Improved Organization: New folder structures by Genre and Release Date for easier browsing. Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree (Requires Backport)
Our stance: We do not condone piracy of games still being sold by developers. However, we support the preservation of delisted titles, demo discs, and games with unusable physical media. Always support indie developers.
- Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree (Requires Backport) – The full DLC integration is tricky. Look for v1.12+ PKGs.
- Bloodborne (60 FPS Patch – For shadPS4) – The emulation community specifically needs the unpatched 1.0 PKG for testing.
- The Last of Us Part II: Remastered – The PS5 version stole attention, but the PS4 remastered update was dumped late 2024.
- Red Dead Redemption 2 (Update 1.29) – The game is massive (110GB+). An updated archive will have the update PKG separated from the base.
- Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut – Requires FW 9.00+ frequently.
- Persona 3 Reload (PS4 Port) – A surprise PS4 release that was rushed to archive within 48 hours.
- P.T. (Silent Hills Demo) – The holy grail of preservation. Updated archives always include the original 1.00 PKG for P.T. because it is delisted.
- Gran Turismo 7 (Offline Mode Patched) – Due to server shutdown scares, the offline crack is huge news.
- Spider-Man: Miles Morales (v1.10+) – The patch that improved ray tracing is highly sought after.
- Resident Evil 4 Remake (Separate Ways DLC) – The DLC integration PKGs are often missing from old archives.
- Extract the PKG using a tool like
pkg2zip or fake_pkg_decrypt.
- You need the passcode (keys) for the specific firmware. These are available on the shadPS4 wiki.
- Point shadPS4 to the extracted folder.
- Install the required firmware (using a PS4UPDATE.PUP file from your archive).
- Hit "Boot." (Pray to the emulation gods).
