PlayStation 4 Release: PS4 Patch Installer released letting you downgrade/upgrade games on your console without being signed into PSN
Like all other types of application software, video games also see updates to fix bugs and perhaps add content. As a result, getting updates for games on your PlayStation 4 is undoubtedly desirable and so 0x199 released PS4 Patch Installer earlier this month which aims to make game upgrading/downgrading as painless as possible!
What is PS4 Patch Installer?
PS4 Patch Installer takes care of all your game upgrading/downgrading needs directly on your hacked PS4 😉 (Image from release thread)
PS4 Patch Installer is a homebrew utility for hacked PlayStation 4 consoles that gives you power over the patches/updates installed over your console’s games. First and foremost, this is done by allowing you to download patch/update files on your PlayStation 4 without being signed into PSN as it gets update packages from ORBISPatches.com which in turn links to official Sony sources. Other than letting you download updates without being signed into PSN, PS4 Patch Installer comes with some other goodies of its own including:
- The ability to download whichever update version you desire rather than just the latest update
- Support for downgrading games
- This may be useful if you wish to install a mod that only functions with a specific version of the game
- An option to delete the current patch/update installed over a game
- This reverts the game back to its base version without any updates applied to it
Before getting too excited, it is important to state that PS4 Patch Installer does not enable piracy as it simply downloads updates for legitimately installed games rather than downloading games for free. Furthermore, it’s important to state that the homebrew utility does not work for games installed through the fPKG route.
Conclusion
You may grab PS4 Patch Installer by following the link the below and then installing the PKG file through the Debug Menu. A YouTube video, done by the homebrew’s creator, is also provided below showing the homebrew utility in action.

Ah just make it work across the board, its useful
Just to be clear. So if a backup game was installed via fpkg, and later I update the game via this Patch Installer, then the game would not work anymore, correct?
So, it can’t downgrade games down to 6.72?
Dude no, are you dumb? Go home you’re drunk.
It could with a small tweak.
Just to let anyone on 7.02 know, the dev has stated that it currently doesn’t work as Mira has a problem. This should be fixed at some point soon, but for now you’ll just get a blank screen.
This currently doesn’t work on 7.02 due to an issue with Mira, but the dev has said it should be working soon.
Kinda sucks that it only works with retail games, but I’m sure someone will find a way around it.
Hi. i have 6.72 on my. I try HEN , MIRA and MIRA experimentel. With HEN come the error message that i need MIRA.
After a reboot i try MIRA and, a black screen… i after 5 minutes, nothing. But i can go back , without a reboot.
I try the other Mira, same thing. What i make wrong ?
Program just sees on your internal harddrive games .Copy the game on your internal drive and you will see the prgram is working.
Bye the waythanks all homebrew developers.
and i am on 6.72 too
But i have the original version of Witcher 3 Wild Hund German Edition. End of course some games on it. And i use an external USB Hard Drive or/and stick. But later , only from the hard drive from the PS4 Pro. So… no need to copy.
I have the same problem
Maybe for the moment it´s better to wait for a newer version.@William saiy it doesn´t work on 7.02 maybe the same at 6.72. Only for 5.05 ? I have a second PlayStation, this day´s i update to 5.05… and i try it.
I managed to make it work with al azif more when it squeezes X of the error
I honestly just wish they just release a version of nopaystation for the PS4 instead where updated and backport patches as also hosted so that those that are still on 5.05 can get the newer games without the need to update to a buggy and less stable exploit.
Pay someone to spend the time making it. Problem solved. I estimate the total price for the man hours to achieve that at $1500.
I managed to download the update but the error to install the update are official and not Fpkg?
It is used for game dumpers and create fpkg
I used FW 6.72 with darkmodder´s webpage and New Explot with Mira or UnOfficial Mira = Balckscreen
before i used Exploit+HEN and the result was a Message: Blackscreen + Use MIRA
I sc*** out ^^
I hope for a tipp or an Update
The patch installer works well!
Can you please give a link , what jailbreak you use ? Update 1.01 is out… still Blackscreen.
To work need to be Mira and can not use dns
Hello. Please help. I used different MIRA Versions and no one works. I have install the update. Blackscreen. I am on 6.72.
when i used exploit+HEN it require MIRA, but i do with MIRA many times. how about dns? i have a correct internet connection. testing ok. i only write up ssid + encryption finish.
