The beauty of Project Eris lies in its "No Modchip" installation. Users download the Project Eris files, extract them onto a FAT32 formatted USB stick, insert the stick into the console, and power it on. The system boots from the USB stick rather than the internal memory, leaving the original Sony software untouched (unless the user chooses to flash the internal memory, which is an option but not required).
The PS1 Classic runs on a MediaTek MT8167A Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A35 processor. Internally, it has 16GB of storage (though only about 14GB is user-accessible). The kernel of the operating system is Linux-based.
Project Eris performs two main actions:
Because it flashes the kernel, the mod is persistent. If you remove the USB drive, the console still knows it is modded, but it will simply boot to the stock 20 games. It does not "brick" the console; the process is reversible.

1. Expanded Game Library The stock PlayStation Classic came with 20 pre-loaded games. Project Eris allows users to add their own games easily. By simply dragging and dropping game files (ISOs, BIN/CUE, PBP) into specific folders on a USB stick, users can build a library limited only by their storage capacity.
2. Multi-System Emulation While the device was built for PS1 games, Project Eris unlocks the hardware's potential to emulate other retro systems. The classic console has enough processing power to run emulators for the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, Game Boy Advance, and even some arcade games (via FinalBurn Alpha). It effectively transforms the device from a PS1 mini into a general retro-gaming hub.
3. Compatibility and Performance One of the biggest issues with the stock console was Sony’s decision to use the open-source PCSX-ReARMed emulator with suboptimal settings. Project Eris includes updated emulator cores that offer better performance, smoother framerates, and improved sound quality. It also allows users to tweak settings like "frameskip" or "audio interpolation" on a per-game basis.
4. Controller Support The original release had limited support for third-party controllers. Project Eris vastly improves Bluetooth and USB controller support. It allows users to use modern controllers (like DualShock 4, Xbox One controllers, or 8BitDo models) to play their games wirelessly, a feature that was sorely missing from the stock unit. The beauty of Project Eris lies in its
5. Customization and Mods Project Eris is built with customization in mind. Users can:
When Sony released the PlayStation Classic (PS1 Classic) in December 2018, nostalgia was at an all-time high. The tiny miniature console, a 45% scale replica of the original grey PlayStation, came pre-loaded with 20 iconic games. However, for many fans, the celebration turned to disappointment. The emulation was average, the game library omitted legendary titles like Crash Bandicoot, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and the console used an outdated version of the open-source emulator, PCSX ReARMed.
Enter Project Eris.
If you own a PS1 Classic and feel it has been gathering dust, Project Eris is the software modification (mod) that transforms your mini console from a limited collectors’ item into a powerhouse retro gaming machine. This article provides a comprehensive deep dive into what Project Eris is, how it compares to its rivals (like Autobleem and RetroBoot), how to install it, and how to maximize your gaming experience.
