Why Orbit Play

Everything Remote Play needs, in one app

Works with offline accounts

Enable Remote Play for local PS5 profiles that have never been linked to PSN. Orbit Play shows you what it will change and waits for you to confirm.

How account setup works

No ID or PIN chores

Orbit Play reads the profile’s account ID and exchanges the Remote Play PIN for you. There is nothing to look up, convert or generate.

One download

The desktop app includes the player and the PS5 helper, and starts the helper through Payload Manager or your ELF loader. No separate ELF or Chiaki install.

Made for playing locally

Your network, your settings

  • Stays on your home network. Pairing and playing never need a PSN login or an internet connection.
  • Choose your picture. 360p, 540p, 720p or 1080p at 30 or 60 fps, from 1 to 50 Mbps. Start with 720p60 at 10 Mbps.
  • DualSense, keyboard and mouse. Play with a DualSense over USB or Bluetooth, or with the keyboard.
  • One pairing per user. Each console and PS5 user keeps its own pairing, checked before every connection.
  • Recovers from drop-outs. Turn on up to three automatic reconnect attempts after a network interruption.
  • Private diagnostics. Exports leave out addresses, names, account IDs, PINs and pairing keys.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How do I Remote Play a jailbroken PS5?

Download Orbit Play for your computer, load your PS5’s jailbreak and open Payload Manager or enable an ELF loader. In the app, enter the PS5’s address and choose Start helper on PS5. Enter the six-digit trust code the helper shows, then pair and start playing. The step-by-step guide shows every screen.

Can I use PS5 Remote Play without PSN?

Yes. Pairing and playing happen on your home network: Orbit Play never asks for a PSN sign-in and doesn’t need an internet connection. It does not provide online PSN services.

Does it work with offline or local PS5 accounts?

Yes. Orbit Play can enable Remote Play for profiles that have never been linked to PSN, often called offline accounts. If the profile needs a local account ID, the app creates one, so you don’t need a separate offline activation tool. It only does this after you review the changes and accept the risk to existing saves. We recommend a separate new profile with no saves. Read account setup and recovery first.

Do I need my PSN account ID in base64?

No. Orbit Play reads the account ID of the profile logged in on the PS5, so there’s no lookup website, script or hex-to-base64 conversion. Profiles that have never been linked to PSN have no online ID to look up; if one needs a local account ID, account setup creates it.

Do I need Chiaki or another Remote Play tool?

No. Orbit Play includes the player and the PS5 helper, handles the account ID and Remote Play PIN, and offers account setup when it’s needed. You still need a jailbroken PS5 with a payload loader.

Which PS5 firmware works?

Orbit Play has been tested on firmware 13.60 with Relapse and Payload Manager v0.5.2. Other firmware may work but is untested; after account setup there, restart the PS5 and reload the jailbreak before pairing.

Do I need to download the PS5 ELF?

No. The desktop app includes the PS5 helper and starts it on your jailbroken PS5 through Payload Manager or an ELF loader. If you prefer to run the helper yourself, the standalone ELF is on the download page.

Is Orbit Play free?

Yes. Orbit Play is free and open source. The computer app is licensed under AGPL-3.0-only and the PS5 helper under GPL-3.0-or-later, and every release includes the complete source of both.
