NEED FOR SPEED MOST WANTED RUNS NATIVELY ON IPHONE AND IPAD, NO EMULATOR
NFSMW Recompiled for iOS 0.5.0: the Xbox 360 Most Wanted on iPhone and iPad

bep1s69's nfsmw-ios is a static recompilation of the Xbox 360 Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005) for iPhone and iPad. The game's PowerPC code is translated ahead of time into C++ and compiled for Apple's arm64 chips with the ReXGlue SDK, and the game's own shaders are translated to Metal (on by default), with Vulkan through MoltenVK as a fallback. Version 0.5.0 landed Oct 29 after three releases in three days. It needs iOS / iPadOS 26 (18 is untested). It adds a phone to the run of Most Wanted recomps already on the wire for Windows, Android and Mac.
You need: Your own ISO of the USA Xbox 360 Need for Speed: Most Wanted. iPhone or iPad on iOS / iPadOS 26 or later, and a way to sideload an .ipa.
