Some PS2 Classics games on PS4/PS5 contain a digital manual in /sce_companion_httpd/html/. It consists in images (usually coming from orginal manual) displayed by a JavaScript application running through the SCE Companion HTTPd daemon. This type of manuals using SCE Companion HTTPd is not exclusive to PS2 Classics games as for example Chaos;Child Love Chu Chu!! PS4 game also has such a manual, altough it must be noted that Love Chu Chu!! is a fan disc for the classical Chaos;Child game.
Some manuals are also available on internet, on some AWS servers probably owned by Sony.

=== Games that have a manual ===
To be documented.
It is expected that every game that has a manual online in the ps2-museum website also has this manual in its PKG file. But it is possible that the ps2-museum website does not contain manuals of newer games even though that those games have a manual in their PKG files.

* Psychonauts
