Four component updates lead the new HATS pack
HATS-2026-10-16-50f58f7 is a packaged release of the Homebrew App Tools & Store collection, published on October 16, 2026. Its changelog lists updates for Atmosphere, DBI English (Unofficial), KitNX and SaltyNX.
Atmosphere moves from 1.12.0 to 1.12.1, while DBI English (Unofficial) advances from build 905 to 912. KitNX is updated from 1.0.1 to 1.0.2, and SaltyNX moves from 2.1.2 to 2.1.3. These are the changes identified in the release changelog, making this a component refresh rather than a stated revision of every included tool.
A consolidated collection for Nintendo Switch homebrew
HATS is a curated collection for the Nintendo Switch homebrew ecosystem. The pack is distributed as a downloadable archive, and the release lists support for Nintendo Switch system firmware up to 23.0.1.
The essential section contains Atmosphere 1.12.1 and Hekatos 6.5.4. The release lists both as essential components but does not provide further details about their roles or any specific changes to Hekatos.
Homebrew applications expand the included toolkit
The homebrew applications section includes DBI English (Unofficial) 912, Goldleaf 1.2.1, Tinwoo Installer 1.0.28 and Tinfoil 20.0 v2. HATS-Tools is included at version 1.7.3, while Cyberfoil is listed at 1.5.0.
The same section contains JKSV, shown with the date-style version 12/02/2025, along with Linkalho 2.0.2, NxThemeInstaller nxt-3.0.2, Sphaira 1.0.8 and Switch 90DNS Tester 1.1.0.
The release identifies these applications as included components rather than newly updated items. Their versions describe the contents of this HATS pack, while the four version changes in the changelog identify what changed since the previous build.
Patches and payloads remain part of the package
The patches section includes Disable remap dialog 1.0.14, MissionControl 0.16.0, Theme-Patches, ldn_mitm 1.22.0 and nx-ovlloader 2.0.3. SaltyNX 2.1.3 appears here as one of the components updated in this release. The notes do not provide individual change descriptions for the other patches.
HATS also includes FuseCheck 1.0.5, KitNX 1.0.2, Lockpick_RCM_Pro 2.2.0, ProdinForge 1.0.0, TegraExplorer-Ext 4.2.2 and Warmboot-Extractor 1.1.0 as payloads. KitNX is the only payload specifically marked as updated in the changelog; the other versions are package inventory details.
Overlay tools round out the HATS contents
The Tesla overlays section contains Edizon Overlay 1.0.15, FPSLocker 3.5.0, QuickNTP 1.6.0, Status Monitor Overlay 1.4.1, Sys-patch 1.6.2.3, Sysmodules Overlay 1.5.3 and Ultrahand Overlay 2.5.3.
It also includes emuiibo 1.1.3, sys-clk 2.0.1+r28 and sys-clk base files 2.0.1. The release notes do not report changes to these components for this build, but they remain part of the archive's included software.
What this release means for users
