Over the last week or so, various PlayStation 5 emulators came out of the woodwork, not least because they are more relevant than ever due to Sony’s decision to take physical media out back and do unspeakable things to it.
And while a few days ago one of the emulators managed to boot Demon’s Souls Remake, a major achievement in its own right, it’s now also been able to launch a much newer PlayStation 5 exclusive to the loading screen, Astro Bot.
As spotted by VideoCardz, RSantila, a member of the SharpEmu Discord server, managed to get Astro Bot past the “Sony Interactive Entertainment” screen, and though it would freeze and crash soon after, this is a major milestone for an early-stage emulator. It should be noted that Bloodborne went from loading screen to playable within a year or so, meaning we could be seeing PlayStation 5 exclusives playable on PC, at least to a certain degree, as soon as next summer.
