Kiln is a PlayStation 5 emulator for Windows PC. You run the game you already own after installing official firmware — see [Install Firmware](/boot/install-firmware).

## Settings that held 60

1080p output on the Performance preset, discrete GPU selected, VSync off in the launcher. Nothing exotic.

First launch builds shaders, so expect a short hitch in the opening minutes. After that it stays smooth. Same story as every title: details on [boosting fps](/lab/boost-fps).

DualSense over USB is the verified path — sticks, triggers, face buttons. See [DualSense setup](/boot/dualsense-on-pc).

## Boot it

1. Install Kiln from [the Windows installer](/download).

2. Install official PS5UPDATE.PUP via File then Install Firmware.

3. Boot system software, add the game you own, and press Start.
