Follow me on social media:

Two insiders have claimed that PlayStation is reportedly working on PS3 emulation for the PlayStation 5.

That’s according to XboxEra’s Nick Baker and Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb, who have both claimed that PlayStation is working on PS3 emulation for the PlayStation 5.

The first report of the rumor came from Nick Baker, who claimed that “Sony is working on select PlayStation 3 backward compatibility.” Unfortunately, Baker doesn’t provide any other details and has seemingly covered all his bases using the term ‘select,’ which could mean one game or all of them.

However, Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb took to his podcast to also cover the news and add a little more input on what he’s heard. “It’s something I’ve heard has been in the works for quite some time; I thought it was going to get revealed earlier this year when I first heard about it, but that clearly didn’t happen. That doesn’t mean it will never happen; maybe it does,” he said. Unfortunately, Grubb’s input is also pretty vague and doesn’t necessarily confirm that this could ever be released, but as always, with smoke, there’s fire.

Do you think PlayStation is working on PS3 emulation for the PlayStation 5?

If I can not use my old ps3 disc in my ps5 I don’t care

[nbdante]

It's still a rumor like the PS5 Pro, nothing is officially confirmed! That will be interesting only in the case they make the PS3 discs play on a PS5!

If it’s not a PS3 download option, forget it!

Xbox been putting 360 games on Series X|S since day one lol. Sony just now catching up 😂

One thing I'm kinda worried about is the fact sony can charge us money to play ps3 online multiplayer.

I want use my disc just like Xbox does

Backwards compatibility should’ve been a built in feature with the PS4 from the start. Even Microsoft didn’t fumble that part… entirely.

my xbox runs ps2 games in dev mode at 4k or 1080p better than an ps5 emulator 440p ps2 lol

We don't have ps3 at all in Australia not even streaming

[SEGA]

That's why i just keep all my old consoles and collect for them 🎮

[mandrews]

Been waiting for this. Hoping they go the XBox route and are able to add 4K and/or 60 fps to some releases as well. We’ve seen other Ps2 titles lately using an ‘upscaler’ and it’s not always clean. And hopefully we can play them natively as downloads. There is so much locked away on the PS3 that I’m glad they’re finally embracing this fully.

Give me Resistance, Killzone, Infamous and more and I’m good to go.

In Australia we don't even have ps3 games on our ps+

I wonder how it would work, because the PS3 was built around the Cell Processor, which was notoriously difficult to develop games with.

Stellar blade only sold 1 million copies after all that drama and hype 😂

[LovelyRottweiler-nnot]

Bought me and my son a ps5... got fed up and bought a steam deck. Never looked back. 🎉

[thejcxshow]

I hope that they would me use PS3 disc, if not, I'm out.

[jimdavies]

Why only ps5? Why not ps4? I would be so happy to play the killzone games again.

[ApustajaGearSolid]

Arkham Origins on PS5 with the Cold Cold Heart DLC would be AMAZING

[ImarBenIsrael]

That's grest . Hopefully, we start getting ps5 games soon thereafter.
