A PlayStation 2 static recompiler that translates PS2 ELF binaries (MIPS R5900 instructions) into C++ code, plus a runtime to execute the generated code for native PC ports. It includes analysis, recompilation, runtime, and IOP high-level emulation modules.

Use cases

  • decompile a PS2 game into native C++ for a PC port
  • statically recompile a PS2 ELF binary
  • translate MIPS R5900 instructions to C++
  • create a native PC port of a PlayStation 2 game
  • analyze PS2 ELF functions and generate recompiler config
  • run recompiled PS2 code with syscall and IOP emulation

When to choose

  • you want to make a native PC port of a PS2 game via static recompilation
  • you need literal instruction-to-C++ translation with configurable stubs and patches
  • you want a self-contained recompiler plus runtime rather than a full emulator

When to avoid

  • you just want to play PS2 games - use a full emulator like PCSX2 instead
  • you need a mature, battle-tested tool - the project is explicitly experimental
  • you target platforms without SSE4/AVX support
