- The ShadPS4 emulator continues to go through significant upgrades.
- A new video shows games like Killzone Shadowfall and God of War 3 running on the emulator.
- Although these games still need to be polished, ShadPS4’s improvements are a great sign for the future.
PS4 emulation has come a long way over the last year. What started as a project to make Bloodborne playable at 60FPS on PC has now turned into a major accomplishment as shadPS4 continues to make strides.
Previously, the emulator showed potential by running games like Driveclub and Gravity Rush. A new video shows that this potential continues to be realized, with even more games becoming playable earlier this month.
Why it matters: Emulation typically require a long time to reach an acceptable standard. The likes of RPCS3 have only recently become really good at emulating the libraries of older consoles.
As seen above, shadPS4 now supports a rather impressive selection of PS4 games.
The video shows already supported games like Driveclub running with further improvements. It also highlights a title like Killzone Shadowfall being playable to an extent, which previously failed to launch on the emulator.
This goes without saying, but shadPS4 is still not perfect at running these titles. In fact, games like God of War 3 demonstrate that there is still considerable work to be done, with visual bugs and other issues persisting in many games.
Others like Killzone Shadowfall leave much to be desired in the frame rate department. However, the results are still impressive for an emulator that began development not too long ago. At this rate, the entire PS4 library could be fully supported on PC in a matter of a few years.
This would be handy, of course, for games like Bloodborne and Infamous Second Son that have yet to receive a PC port.
What are your thoughts on the emulator’s progress so far? Do you hope to play the PS4 library on PC at some point? Share your opinions in the comments, and visit the Tech4Gamers Forums for more discussions.
