Rez HD Native Port

What you need: The Xbox Live Arcade package of Rez HD, dumped from your own console.

This is a native port of the Xbox Live Arcade game Rez HD for Windows and Linux, part of CrownParkComputing’s Xbox360-Native-Ports collection. The game code is statically recompiled to x86-64 with the group’s fork of the ReXGlue SDK.

Every CrownParkComputing launcher contains the recompiled game code, a native Vulkan renderer, native audio and a small launcher. Importing checks the game files against the checksums the port was built from, and the importer also installs DLC packs. The Linux build runs the game in a headless gamescope session inside the rexmenu launcher, which tracks achievements and manages saves; it needs gamescope and python3. The Windows build uses simple batch launchers.

All the ports in the collection were released on the same day and are called playable by the author; the Windows builds are cross-compiled and less tested. The download contains no game data. It needs the Xbox Live Arcade package of Rez HD, dumped from your own console.

How to set it up

1. Download rez-launcher-windows-x86_64.zip or rez-launcher-linux-x86_64.tar.zst and extract it (tar --zstd -xf on Linux).
2. Windows: run Launcher.bat (or Play.bat, which imports on first run). Linux: run ./run.sh (needs gamescope and python3).
3. When asked, point it at your own copy: the Rez HD XBLA package (title 584108B3), as the single LIVE/CON/PIRS file or its extracted files.
4. Play. Saves and settings stay in user-data next to the launcher; a Vulkan GPU driver is required.
