Valkyria Revolution PS4RT v1.2

Linux x86-64 release.

What’s New in v1.2

Improved player launcher: Standardized the launcher as Play-Game.sh to match other PS4RT ports. Supply --game on the first launch; later launches reuse the remembered, validated game directory. The previous Play-Valkyria.sh remains available for compatibility with existing shortcuts.
Cleaner source and distribution: Removed obsolete Windows packaging infrastructure and unused launcher logic, including the Tkinter folder picker. Tightened the public source export and excluded unnecessary documentation from the player archive.
Restart Game: Added a Restart Game option to the PS4RT graphics overlay, with a confirmation prompt to avoid accidental restarts.
Restored overlay assets: Added the overlay background artwork and recorded navigation, confirm and cancel sounds to the repository so clean portable builds include them.
Clearer setup guidance: Improved the included PLAYER_README.txt and first-launch error message for players who have not yet configured their game directory.

Features

Original PS4 x86-64 game code running through the PS4RT Linux compatibility runtime
1080p, 1440p and 4K output (the game renders internally at 1080p)
FSR 3.1 and bundled FSR 4 v07 support where hardware features permit
Anisotropic filtering up to 16x and adjustable sharpening
Custom illustrated graphics overlay with menu sounds, display-mode selection, and confirmation dialogs for Restart Game and Exit Game
DualSense, XInput and keyboard support, with configurable launch-time mappings
Save/load support with existing player saves and settings preserved

Compatibility

Tested on Fedora Linux through the opening three chapters, including cinematics, exploration, combat and initial saving/loading. The glibc 2.35 portable build and graphics overlay have also been gameplay smoke-tested on Fedora.

A complete playthrough has not been verified.

This release targets native x86-64 (AMD64) Linux CPUs. ARM64 devices, including systems running x86-64 binaries through FEX or Box64, are not officially supported. Other Linux distributions, including SteamOS, remain unverified.

Installation

Download and extract the Linux x86-64 runtime archive, open a terminal inside its extracted directory, and run this once with your own game path:

bash Play-Game.sh --game "/path/to/your/CUSA06810"

On later launches, the launcher remembers the validated game directory:

bash Play-Game.sh

You can supply --game again at any time to choose and remember a different valid game location. See PLAYER_README.txt inside the player archive for details. The --data-dir option remains available for custom save/settings locations; supply the same custom location on subsequent launches.

Requirements:

Linux x86-64 with glibc 2.35 or newer
Compatible Vulkan graphics driver and loader
Python 3
Your own extracted, plaintext Valkyria Revolution PS4 game files (CUSA06810)

Players do not need Podman, a compiler, or separate installations of the twelve bundled application libraries, including FFmpeg 8 and SDL3. No LD_LIBRARY_PATH setup is required for normal play.

The original game files and PS4 firmware are not included. See the repository README for source instructions, known limitations, credits and licensing notices.
