Kiln is a PlayStation 5 emulator for Windows PC with a Windows installer and a desktop launcher. The launcher lists 400+ titles. That is a library count, not a promise that every title plays.
Each graded title gets exactly one lab status: Stable, Beta, or Test. The full sheet lives on the compat lab with per-title notes, frame rates, and build numbers.
Own the games you already have. Kiln ships no games and no firmware, and it is not affiliated with Sony.
Stable means the title plays start to finish on the reference rig. Beta means it reaches gameplay with known issues. Test means it boots, stalls at a menu, needs online, or simply is not graded yet.
Every status comes from how we grade on one reference rig. A status is a lab result, not a certification of your PC, your driver, or your copy of the game.
If your PC matches the lab class rig, Stable titles are where you start. Anything else, read the note first.
New to the emulator? Run Boot first: installer, firmware, system software, then games.

Stable means the title played start to finish on our reference rig at the listed settings. It does not certify your PC. See how we grade for the full definition.
