PERSONA 3 FES GOES NATIVE ON PC: NEW PS2 RECOMP IS PLAYABLE START TO FINISH
Persona 3 FES goes native on Windows PC in a new PS2 static recompilation

C-GBL's P3FES-Decompilation is a native Windows x64 port of Atlus's Persona 3 FES (USA, SLUS_216.21). All 14,500 functions of the PS2 executable are statically recompiled into C++ and run on a runtime written for this game, with a Direct3D 11 renderer and the game's 114 VU1 microprograms compiled ahead of time. The creator says the game plays from start to finish, but calls it not the finished product: file IO, sound and ADX movie playback are still emulated for now. The first build (30 Oct) can run at up to 120fps. No game files ship: it checks your own USA disc against a known hash and refuses other regions and modified images. It is the second PS2 classic to go native this week, after Zone of the Enders.
You need: Your own USA PS2 disc image of Persona 3 FES (SLUS_216.21) as an .iso, plus its extracted files, and Windows 64-bit. Download the .exe only from the creator's GitHub releases page and check it against the SHA-256 the creator lists there.
How to play Persona 3 FES on PC
- Download p3fes.exe from the releases page and check its SHA-256 against the one the creator lists.
- Put your own USA persona3fes.iso in an input folder and its extracted files in extracted\disc, as the README shows.
- Launch with: p3fes.exe --iso input\persona3fes.iso --renderer native --fps 120
