How do you get custom firmware so you can play free PSP games? Follow these steps:
- Check if your PSP supports custom firmware by reading the CFW compatibility guide.
- If your PSP is hackable, proceed to this guide on how to install custom firmware.

- 5.00 M33 (requires 500.pbp)
- 5.03 GEN-A or Custom Firmware Enabler/5.03 MHU (requires 503.pbp)
- 5.50 GEN-B or 5.50 MHU (requires 550.pbp)
Once you’ve had everything sorted out, you’re now ready to download free PSP games.
