After the recent release of Qwikrazor87’s Puzzle Scape exploit, and its obligatory VHBL port, a few users running on PS Vita 3.52 were left in the cold: the Puzzle Scape game (and therefore the exploit) is only available on European PSN stores. People with a US or JP PSN account had to either create a EU PSN account (and go through the painful process of switching their PS Vita account), or wait in hope of a new exploit.

That wait might be soon over, at least for those of you with a JP PSN account: Patchouli just announced he has an exploit running on PS Vita 3.52, on a game in the JP store.

The current exploit is a work in progress, as Patchouli only has a hello world at this point. As such, there is no announce for a release at this point. This could potentially be used to port VHBL, or, as mamosuke mentions, in the case an ePSP kernel exploit gets released, would mean that people on a JP PSN account could leverage this game exploit to run ARK or TN-V on 3.52.

Mamosuke has released a video showcasing the exploit in action on 3.52:

As always, stay tuned!
