Case West Recomp

What you need: The Xbox Live Arcade package file of Dead Rising 2: Case West (title ID 58410B00, about 1.2 GB), copied from your own Xbox 360.

Case West Recomp is a native port of Dead Rising 2: Case West for Windows and Linux, made by static recompilation with XenonRecomp and XenosRecomp on a purpose-built engine with a Vulkan renderer, real XMA audio and native keyboard and mouse controls.

The author calls it essentially complete: the single-player game has been played start to finish and checked on NVIDIA and AMD cards on Windows and Linux. Two-player online co-op, as on the Xbox 360, works through the XenonLive launcher. The repository includes a guide for the Claude Code AI assistant.

The download contains no game data. It needs the Dead Rising 2: Case West XBLA package from your own Xbox 360.

How to set it up

1. Download the zip for Windows, or the tarball, AppImage or Steam Deck build for Linux, and unpack it.
2. Copy your package file (from Content/0000000000000000/58410B00/000D0000/) into the assets/package/ folder, or drag it onto the launcher window.
3. Run cw_runtime.exe (./cw_runtime on Linux). The first run unpacks the package and prepares the shaders.
4. For online co-op, start the game from the XenonLive launcher; started on its own it is single-player.
