The team behind the development of the RPCS3 emulator let us know that they have reached another important milestone. There is not a single game left that RPCS3 can’t somehow launch.

All, absolutely all of the 3233 titles that make up the PlayStation 3 console library can be emulated on Windows, Linux and MacOS PCs, provided that the system requirements are met.

An amazing result. From now on, the team will focus on improving overall performance, as well as fixing graphical bugs and glitches.

Many of the collaborators have also started making some patches to unlock the framerate and exceed the limit imposed on 30 FPS.

RPCS3 began its development in early 2011 by a small team of programmers led by DH and Hykem , currently supports modern DirectX 12, Vulkan and OpenGL renderers.

To date, the development is followed by the developer Nekotekina together with other collaborators.

Updates

If you run the emulator in Windows, just drag the updated executable to the root directory of the RPCS3 folder . New DLLs may be added or changed from time to time, be sure to copy these files as well if necessary.

If instead you run the emulator in Linux, you need to download the updated AppImage and make it executable with the command chmod a+x ./rpcs3-*_linux64.AppImage.

Requirements

Since this is an emulator in continuous development, the system requirements may vary from version to version.

However, the minimum system requirements that must be met for the emulator to work properly on any system have been reported.

	Minimum	Recommended
Processor	AMD – 6 cores and 12 threads, 8 cores or more AMD Zen 2 architecture or newer AMD Threadripper 1000 and 2000 series are not recommended Intel: 6 cores and 12 threads, 8 cores or more Intel Skylake architecture or newer	AMD – Any x64 CPUs CPUs without AVX2 and with fewer than 4 cores and 8 threads should perform very poorly overall CPUs with only 2 cores per CCX cluster should perform very poorly overall Intel – Any x64 CPUs CPUs without AVX2 and with less than 4 cores and 8 threads should perform very poorly overall
GPUs	AMD – Vulkan compatible with active driver support AMD Polaris architecture, RX 400 series or later NVIDIA compatible – Vulkan with active driver support NVIDIA Maxwell architecture, GTX 900 series or later	AMD – Compatible with OpenGL 4.3 or later AMD Evergreen Architecture, HD 5000 series or later NVIDIA – Compatible with OpenGL 4.3 or later NVIDIA Fermi Architecture, GTX 400 series or later
RAM	8GB dual-channel RAM or more Dual-channel memory is highly recommended over single -channel memory	4GB of RAM or more 4GB is the absolute minimum requirement
Storage	SSD storage for emulator data, SSD or HDD storage for games 512MB for base emulator data, 5GB for virtual console dev_hdd1 cache 128MB for emulator cache and console user data per installed game* * Average recommendation. Some games may require more, most games require less	SSD or HDD storage for emulator data and games 512MB for base emulator data, 5GB for virtual console dev_hdd1 cache 128MB for emulator cache and console user data per installed game* * Average recommendation .

os	Windows Windows 10 21H1 or later Linux Linux 5.16 (latest), 5.15 (LTS) or later Mac OS macOS Monterey 12.0 or later FreeBSD FreeBSD 13.0 or later	Windows Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 2004 or later Linux Linux 5.4 (old LTS), Ubuntu 18.04 or later Mac OS macOS Big Sur 11.6 or later FreeBSD FreeBSD 12.2 or later

Note: These are NOT stable builds. RPCS3 is rolling release software with no stable builds. These are random tags that we do from time to time. DO NOT use the branch of these tags for the RPCS3 package.
