Mega Man 8 Recomp is a native port of Mega Man 8 for Windows, made by static recompilation with mstan's PSXRecomp and the recomp-ui launcher. It targets the USA release (SLUS-00453) and is one of a batch of PlayStation recompilations omegakatana92 published in September 2026.

The launcher selects the disc and settings, and the open-source OpenBIOS is built in, so no BIOS dump is needed; a retail BIOS can be chosen instead. The PSXRecomp runtime also offers optional enhancements such as faster loading and PGXP geometry correction.

The README describes it as complete and playable, which has not been independently confirmed. Known issues are occasional audio crackling and cropped, sometimes stuttering FMV scenes. The download contains no game data. It needs Mega Man 8 (USA, SLUS-00453), dumped from your own disc.

## How to set it up

1. Download the Windows zip.
2. Extract the zip and run `Mega_Man_8_Recompiled.exe`.
3. In the launcher, select your disc image; a `.cue` with its `.bin` tracks beside it is preferred.
4. Keep the built-in OpenBIOS selected, or browse to a BIOS dump from your own console, then start the game.
