Converting PS3 games directly into PS4-native packages (PKGs) is technically impossible because the two consoles use entirely different processor architectures (Cell vs. x86) . While you can't "convert" a PS3 game to run natively like a PS2-to-PS4 fPKG, you can still play them on a jailbroken PS4 by using a Linux-based emulation layer. The Technical Reality: Why "Conversion" Doesn't Exist
Here is a comprehensive breakdown of the technical limitations, how current emulation works, and the real methods used to play retro games on a PS4. The Technical Reality: Cell vs. x86 Architecture ps3 to ps4 pkg converter exclusive

This process does not create "native" PS4 ports but rather repackages emulated or translated code. Disclaimer: This document is for educational and archival
Complex PS3 games may run slower than they did on original hardware due to the overhead of emulation.
