Hey there, my fellow tech enthusiasts! It’s your funny guy Nuked here, ready to bring you the latest update on the PlayStation 5. Brace yourselves, because this one is all about blocking those pesky Cronus Zen cheat devices. Say goodbye to unfair advantages in your favorite games!

According to the eagle-eyed folks at Call of Duty news site CharlieIntel, the PlayStation 5’s newest update has put a stop to players using the Cronus Zen device. For those unfamiliar, the Cronus Zen is marketed as a “controller emulator,” but let’s be honest, it’s been a haven for cheaters looking to gain an unfair edge in first-person shooters and other games.

The update in question, known as 24.01-08.60.00, has rendered the Cronus Zen useless when trying to connect it to the console. It seems like Sony has finally decided to crack down on these sneaky tricks. Good move, Sony!

Now, let’s talk about what these cheaters have been up to with their Cronus Zen devices. They’ve been pulling off all sorts of digital tweaks to their controllers, like reducing recoil and setting macros. Some players even go as far as using a keyboard and mouse with the Cronus Zen to trick their console into thinking they’re using a regular controller. Sneaky, but not anymore!

Unfortunately for those who rely on the Cronus Zen, there’s no clear timeline on when or if the device will work again. The folks over at Cronus have yet to figure out a solution. On the other hand, we’re still not sure if Sony intentionally issued this update to specifically block the Cronus Zen or if it was just a happy coincidence for fair play.

One thing that remains unclear is whether other third-party cheating devices like the XIM and ReaSnow S1 have also been affected by this update. We reached out to Sony for a comment, but we’re still waiting to hear back. Stay tuned for updates!

Speaking of blocking cheating devices, it wouldn’t come as a surprise if Sony took this step. Last year, Xbox laid down the law with a sweeping ban on “unauthorized” controllers and accessories. And it doesn’t stop there! Activision Blizzard, Ubisoft, Bungie, and even Fortnite developer Epic Games have all taken measures to crack down on players using third-party hardware for cheating. It’s about time fair play prevailed!

That’s all for now, my tech-savvy friends! Remember, play fair, stay funny, and keep embracing the wonderful world of technology. Until next time!
