A new HATS collection for Switch homebrew users
HATS, or Homebrew App Tools & Store, has released build HATS-2026-10-25-afa60dc. The distribution brings together Nintendo Switch homebrew applications, system tools, patches, payloads and Tesla overlays in a single package.
The pack lists support for firmware versions up to 23.0.1 and is distributed as HATS-2026-10-25-afa60dc.zip. It was published on October 25, 2026, and generated with HATSKit Pro Builder 2.0.2-GUI.
JoyOff joins the included applications
JoyOff 1.0.0 is the only new component identified in this build. It joins applications including DBI English, Goldleaf, JKSV, Linkalho, Sphaira, Tinwoo Installer and HATS-Tools.
The release notes do not describe JoyOff’s features, so its inclusion is the main documented change for users interested in adding the new utility to their HATS collection.
Three existing components receive updates
DBI English (Unofficial) advances from build 912 to 921. HATS-Tools moves from version 1.7.3 to 1.7.4, while Sys-patch advances from v1.6.2.3 to v1.6.3.0.
The notes identify these version changes but do not list individual fixes or new features. Sys-patch appears in the package’s patches and Tesla overlays sections, with version v1.6.3.0 shown in both entries.
The package retains its broader toolset
The essential section includes Atmosphere 1.12.1 and Hekatos 6.5.4. Other listed homebrew applications are Cyberfoil 1.5.0, Goldleaf 1.2.1, JKSV dated 12/02/2025, Linkalho v2.0.2, NxThemeInstaller nxt-3.0.2, Sphaira 1.0.8, Switch 90DNS Tester v1.1.0, Tinfoil 20.0 v2 and Tinwoo Installer 1.0.28.
The release also includes Disable remap dialog v1.0.14, MissionControl v0.16.0, SaltyNX 2.1.3, Theme-Patches, ldn_mitm v1.22.0, nx-ovlloader v2.0.3 and sys-clk 2.0.1 in its patches section.
Payloads in the package are FuseCheck 1.0.5, KitNX 1.0.2, Lockpick_RCM_Pro 2.2.0, ProdinForge 1.0.0, TegraExplorer-Ext v4.2.2 and Warmboot-Extractor 1.1.0. The Tesla overlays section lists Edizon Overlay v1.0.15, FPSLocker 3.5.0, QuickNTP 1.6.0, Status Monitor Overlay 1.4.1, Sys-patch v1.6.3.0, Sysmodules Overlay v1.5.3, Ultrahand Overlay v2.5.3, emuiibo 1.1.3 and sys-clk 2.0.1+r28.
A focused maintenance build
The documented changes are limited to the addition of JoyOff and the version updates for DBI English, HATS-Tools and Sys-patch. The remaining entries describe the software included in this HATS package rather than changes announced for this build.
HATS identifies its repository as a distribution channel for stable releases. The current build metadata lists support for firmware up to 23.0.1, although the release notes do not provide detailed compatibility information for each individual component.
The notes also do not document an update procedure or explain the fixes behind the three version changes. Documentation included with the downloaded package is identified as the source of usage guidance.
