Source: https://orbitstore.dev/releases/1.8.5/ · Updated 2026-11-10
We’re shipping improvements and bug fixes across our apps:
- The catalogue now has **2,368 games and 5,306 download options**, plus **631 add-ons with 633 options across 197 base games**.
- **1,064 existing download options** now identify the format inside their archive and the space needed after extraction.
## Orbit Store · Native PS5 app (FFPKG) and browser (ELF)
- Fixed the Downloads list jumping or losing your selection when you resume a download, refresh the list or remove an entry. This applies to all four layouts.
- Fixed downloads looking stuck on **Inspecting archive**.
## Orbit Zero · Mac, Windows and Linux
- Fixed an issue where paused or failed downloads stopped you from adding new downloads.
- Fixed the Downloads list moving around as downloads change status or when you close a download’s details. This applies to all four layouts.
- Fixed file permissions when sending game folders to the PS5, including when resuming an interrupted transfer.
- Settings now shows the right catalogue revision and tells you if a refresh fails.

> I’ve been building Orbit in my own time and covering the costs of AI tools, test consoles, hardware and servers. If you’d like to help, you can [support Orbit via crypto](https://github.com/saawant12/orbit-store-ps5/issues/131#user-content-support-with-crypto). It’s entirely optional.
[Install Orbit Zero on Mac, Windows or Linux](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/orbit-zero-installation/) · [Install Orbit Store on PS5](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/getting-started/#install-the-native-tv-app)
## Install Orbit Zero on your computer
Choose the package matching your computer from **Assets**: macOS DMG, Windows installer or ZIP, or Ubuntu/Debian DEB. Linux TAR.GZ packages are also available. Both ARM64 and x64 builds are included; Linux DEB names use **amd64** for Intel/AMD computers. Quit the older app before installing the new version. See the [installation guide](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/orbit-zero-installation/) for setup and operating-system permissions.
## Install the native TV app (FFPKG)
Download `PPSA99177.ffpkg` from **Assets**, verify its `.sha256`, and copy it to `/data/homebrew/` on your PS5. Let ShadowMountPlus register it, then open **Orbit Store** from the Games row. Native app **1.12.6** includes the matching Orbit Store **1.8.5** service.
If an older Orbit service is running, select **Stop Orbit to restart** in its browser interface before opening the updated app so the new service can start. Pairing, settings and your queue remain saved. This control is under **App settings → Updates & startup** in this release; older releases may call the section **Update / reinstall** or **Updates**. [Native installation and update guide](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/getting-started/#update-the-tv-app).
## Use or update the browser version (ELF)
Download `orbit_store.elf` and its `.sha256` from **Assets**, verify the checksum, then run the ELF through Payload Manager or your ELF loader. Open the Orbit shortcut in the Media tab, or `http://:34177/` on another device on the same local network.
To replace a running older version, select **Stop Orbit to restart**, then launch the new ELF. Orbit Zero also includes the matching ELF under **Console → Start Orbit on PS5**, so you can upload it from your computer without downloading the ELF separately.
On Orbit 1.5.0 or later, **Update Orbit** updates the TV app and the service together. In the native app from 1.8.2 on, select **Close and reopen** when asked; the reopened app starts its bundled service. Browser-only users can restart automatically with an active ELF loader on port 9021, or launch the updated ELF manually through their payload manager.
## Downloads and source
- **PS5:** `PPSA99177.ffpkg` includes the native TV app and download service. Use `orbit_store.elf` to run the service and browser interface on their own.
- **Mac, Windows and Linux:** choose the `Orbit-Zero-*` package for your operating system and processor.
- **Source code:** `orbit-store-1.8.5-source-bundle.zip` includes the Store source code, dependencies, licence notices and build instructions.
- **Checksums:** use `SHA256SUMS` to check your download, or run `shasum -a 256 -c .sha256` for the ELF or FFPKG.
