Publicly available PS4 jailbreak methods work on firmware 13.00 or lower.

The Claim

A Sony PlayStation 4 can be jailbroken on system software version 13.50.

Verified by Lenz ·

The Short Version

The claim is not supported by the evidence. Reliable and corroborated sources describe PS4 firmware 13.50 as patched, with public jailbreak methods working on 13.00 or lower instead. The limited contrary material is unverified tutorial content or mentions of private, unreleased exploits, which does not establish that a PS4 on 13.50 can actually be jailbroken in practice.

Caveats

  • Do not treat a private or unreleased exploit as proof that ordinary users can jailbreak that firmware.
  • Several videos and forum posts conflate downgrading, spoofing, package installation, or adjacent tools with a true native 13.50 jailbreak.
  • User-generated jailbreak tutorials are often unverifiable and can misstate firmware support.
