Published Xbox release records
The installation walkthrough follows xbox-1.1.26291.1739. Newer collected records appear below. The 19 October update note is a separate review of that release’s instructions, without a console test.
These dates and tags are collected from the project's public GitHub Releases API. They establish released packages. They do not automatically change a game's evidence status.

How we use evidence
Project documentation is attributed to its authors. A video establishes only what it visibly demonstrates. Desktop screenshots and desktop compatibility reports remain desktop evidence unless the platform is explicitly identified as Xbox.
This site is a documentation guide. It has no physical test lab or verified completed-game benchmark results. Searchable entries are evidence records, not a claim that we tested that many games.
Daily collection may add genuine release records after validation. It does not fabricate game results, rewrite the editorial review date or automatically promote a title to “playable.” Failed collection keeps the last valid records.
Sources are linked rather than republished. We do not host game files, firmware, developer package mirrors or third-party game artwork. The Bridgeframe logo and explanatory diagrams are original site assets.
Use the project's documented name
The original repository reviewed here calls the project KytyPS5. Our articles follow that naming. A search or demand brief can contain a different label; it cannot establish the identity of the software or authorize an installer.
Check the repository owner Cosmo, project name, release notes and assets together. A similar-sounding domain or a “works with every game” claim is not provenance.
