MagicGate, an encryption technology embedded within specific PlayStation 2 memory cards, relies on the [https://www.psdevwiki.com/ps2/MechaCon MechaCon] chip for security functionalities. MechaCon chip handles various tasks, including PlayStation 2 system security, game disc security, MagicGate, and KELF file decryption. Emulating MagicGate presents unique challenges because replicating its encryption process and hardware verification can be difficult and rightfully raising concerns about copyright situation [https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/pull/4274#issuecomment-795316629][https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/pull/10836#issuecomment-1954866179].
