Same game as 1.0.0, packaged with contentVersion 01.000.001 so consoles and the homebrew catalog can tell versions apart.

Native DOOM for PS5: id Software's original linuxdoom-1.10 running as a home-screen title, drawn through AGC and VideoOut, with DualSense input and rumble, and the DOS-era FM music.

Install

  1. Download PPSA99666.zip and check it against PPSA99666.zip.sha256.
  2. Extract it and copy the PPSA99666 folder to /data/homebrew/ (FTP, ps5upload or USB).
  3. ShadowMountPlus registers it within a few seconds and DOOM appears on the home screen.

Needs a jailbroken PS5 with kstuff and ShadowMountPlus. Tested on firmware 13.00.

Games

DOOM opens on a game list. It ships with the free shareware episode, Knee-Deep in the Dead. Add The Ultimate DOOM, DOOM II, TNT, Plutonia or Freedoom from your own files:

  • copy the WADs, or ZIP, 7Z or RAR archives with them inside, to /data/homebrew/PPSA99666/wads/ and start DOOM again;
  • or choose Add games..., enter an http:// or https:// link to a WAD, an archive, or a folder your PC shares (for example with python -m http.server), and download.

Files from the original releases and from the 2024 DOOM + DOOM II re-release both work. Each game keeps its own saves.

The package contains no commercial game data. See the README for controls and licenses/ in the package for the third-party notices.
