Another year comes by, and so another PCSX2 release! 2.6 just landed, check it out here: https://pcsx2.net/blog/2025/pcsx2-2.6/ #emulation #retrogaming #pcsx2

We know you like teasers, so...

Well, now is a _really_ good time to give your favorite game a quick test run using one of our latest daily builds.

Oh, and please report any issues to our bug tracker... ๐Ÿ˜œ

Because #GNOME and #KDE now have concrete plans to drop #X11, we want you to know that PCSX2 supports #Wayland natively and should support X11 for the foreseeable future. All regular contributors/testers who use Linux (except one) use Wayland, however. So should an X11-specific problem somehow crop up, expect greater latency from introduction to resolution โ€“ we'd be very unlikely to find it ourselves and will instead be relying on user reports. We'll let you know if, when, and why this changes.
The embarrassed author of this post who didn't realize quotes were a thing on Mastodon until now wants to thank @georgetakei for making this post: https://universeodon.com/@georgetakei/115622483353838081 earlier today. Thanks, Mr. Takei! ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ––

To all you "device hoarders" out there who think you can run around destroying the economyโ„ข through basic common sense, we've got some tough words for you:

We're going to keep happily working to make sure your device runs PCSX2 as smoothly as possible. Use the technology that suits your needs, don't let anyone tell you otherwise, and thanks for being part of our community.

Here's a very happy 9th birthday shoutout to melonDS, a great emulator made possible through the hard work of Arisotura et al. You may not be 6th-generation to gaming historians, but you're 6th-generation to us. ๐ŸคŽ #melonds #retrogaming #emulation
What's the best game to enjoy on PCSX2 this Halloween? Maybe more importantly, what's the absolute *worst* game to enjoy on PCSX2 this Halloween? (Snow White and the 7 Clever Boys is cheating, and you will be disqualified.) #halloween #emulation #retrogaming
Additionally, thanks to @sternxd's continued work to standardize our Big Picture Mode UI with the traditional Qt desktop one, you can now configure networking and HDD options from the comfort of your couch! #emulation #retrogaming
Thanks to the hard work of @KamFretoZ, PCSX2 now has a shortcuts feature on Windows and Linux! If you right-click a game in your library and select "Create Game Shortcut...", you can place a custom shortcut on your desktop or in your start menu/application launcher that launches directly into your game! #emulation #retrogaming
