Name: PS5PCEM
Availability: InStock
Author: Artur Strazewicz

Published October 30, 2026. Every file comes from the GitHub release, which is the only place official builds appear.

Changes in 0.3.6

Native DirectX 12 on Windows, PKG/ZAR extraction, twelve launcher languages and 30/60/120 FPS limits. Signed Windows builds and all four Linux package formats are available.

Vulkan improvements for ASTRO BOT, Raiden IV, Severed Steel and Super Woden GP; save fixes for KeyWe and Jets, NGS2 audio work and motion sensor input.

Screenshots and FPS retain their original dates and limits. Linux is experimental; Windows game results do not establish Linux performance. Windows EXEs use the previous timestamped certificate.

Linux requires glibc 2.31+, Linux 5.11+, GTK 3, X11/XWayland, PulseAudio and a Vulkan 1.2 driver. These system libraries are also required for the AppImage. Controller feedback remains Windows-only.

About the signature

The executables and the installer carry a SHA-256 Authenticode signature from Artur Strazewicz / PS5PCEM, timestamped. The certificate is self-signed, so Windows or SmartScreen can still warn you. Checking the hash below is the reliable test.
