Select your own extracted PS4 game directory or import a supported PKG.
Wait for validation and preparation, review your settings, then select Play.

Keep all supplied folders together. Players do not need Python, MSYS2, PowerShell or .NET. A compatible x86-64 CPU and a working Vulkan 1.3 graphics driver are required.

Compatibility and known limitations

CUSA03219 is the tested PS4 edition. Recognized alternative PS4 editions are accepted with an untested warning.
This remains an experimental release; a complete playthrough and compatibility across all hardware have not been established.
Variable-resolution presets can be refused in some scenes. Original 1080p remains the conservative baseline.
Asynchronous shaders can reduce compilation stalls but may cause temporary visual artifacts.
Anisotropic filtering changes require restarting the game.
Ultrawide output uses image fitting; native ultrawide camera/HUD adaptation is not included.
PKG import requires a supported package and a valid creation passcode. Unknown retail-license keys are not recovered.
