Been a while since a cool release has been made in regards to the PS4, so Red-EyeX32 and I worked on the PS4 Package Finder. PS4 Package Finder is a site which utilizes Sony's API to fetch package information for a given title ID. Red helped with the implementation, and we implemented a site that would simplify the process and display the contents nicely for you. As it stands there's still more to implement, in later updates we're going to parse the manifests and such, but for now PS4 Package Finder will do the following;


  • Check if the latest patch is mandatory
  • Show the latest patch number
  • Displays the minimum system firmware required to run the game on the latest firmware
  • Gives the content ID of the given title
  • Fetches the latest delta package link

Notes


The NP environment is the most common for game titles, unless you're trying to run this on debug stuff, you most likely want to use the NP environment.

there is a pkg for them regions wat


Of course there are packages, the links for downloading are not the main TU packages (though hopefully soon they will be), the delta package is different. It seems older games (Ghosts, NHL 15, etc.) don't have a delta package, it may be a newer addition to the package system to increase download times, though I'm still not incredibly sure how the package system works on the PS4 nor the entire purpose of the delta package file. The PS4's package file system seems to differ quite a bit from how the PS3 was setup. I'm probably going to look into this more over the next little while.

Do a barrel roll!
There is some thread where they specify the different regions of the IDs of the games?

you should update it to list every update pkg on the server of that game instead of just the latest as i would like to get some older updates for some games :p

Well it's always going to be the latest update... and the pkg is split into pieces. We're working on it.
