PCSX2, the PlayStation 2 emulator, released version 2.5.385 today, December 15, 2025. This update primarily focuses on enhancing the handling of game patches. It restores the original behavior of the PPT_ONCE_ON_LOAD patch option and introduces a new PPT_ON_LOAD_OR_WHEN_ENABLED place option, offering more granular control over when patches are applied. Furthermore, the emulator's graphical user interface now provides visual feedback, explicitly displaying when a patch has been successfully applied to a game. This change aims to improve clarity and control for users who frequently utilize game-specific patches, ensuring better understanding of their activation status.
