METAL GEAR RISING GOES NATIVE ON JAILBROKEN PS4: XBOX 360 RECOMP HITS 47-60 FPS
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance recompiled to run natively on jailbroken PS4

iHaiDeeZ's MGR-PS4 brings the Xbox 360 version of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance to jailbroken PS4 consoles with no emulator. It builds on tuancapoo's mgr-nx-deko Switch port, which we covered in October: the game's PowerPC code is statically recompiled to C++ with ReXGlue on your PC and compiled for the PS4's Jaguar CPU, and all 1,202 shaders are translated from your own game files. It renders at 720p by default (360p to 1080p in a quick menu) with FSR 1 upscaling, and the creator reports menus at 60 fps and gameplay at 47 to 60 fps on the one PS4 tested so far. v00.09 fixes the game running too fast and story movies stalling, though neither fix is confirmed on a console yet. This is a source-only release, and one catch matters: the build needs ps4-kit, the creator's shared PS4 base, which isn't published yet.
You need: A jailbroken PS4 with GoldHEN and FTP; a PC with WSL 2 and about 20 GB free; the OpenOrbis toolchain; your own Xbox 360 copy of the game (default.xex must match the SHA-1 in the README); and ps4-kit, which is not published yet. Nothing from the game is in the repo or release.
How to play Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance on PC
- Check the README requirements. The build cannot finish until ps4-kit is published.
- Build the package in WSL from your own default.xex and game files.
- Install the package on your own PS4. It is for your console only, so never share it.
