There have been a variety of developments in the PS5 hacking scene over the past handful of days, and it's all pointing to a happy new year for jailbreakers – and owners of the disc edition of Star Wars Racer Revenge for PS4. This game is at the center of a new exploit allowing PS5 and PS4 jailbreaks, and the news has sent prices for the game skyrocketing on eBay.

PS5 and PS4 jailbreaks have been possible for years, but most of them have some serious caveats, requiring you to start from a console running old firmware. An exploit called mast1c0re allows hackers to jailbreak these consoles through the relatively modern 12.0 firmware series, which means much more recent consoles can be hacked.
