Shadow of the Colossus

Shadow of the Colossus (AjncSystem)

AjncSystem/ShadowOfTheColossus-PC

Native Windows port of Shadow of the Colossus for PS4, Bluepoint’s 2018 remake: the game’s own x86-64 code runs directly on the PC’s CPU, and the PS4 GPU is translated to Vulkan. It isn’t a full emulator but a loader with the system functions the game needs, in the style of the Bloodborne Windows port. It comes with a launcher with a game library and display and control options; keyboard and controller at the same time, with mouse camera; a 60 fps mode, 16x anisotropic filtering, a PS4 Pro mode, and output up to 4K. Its author ships fixes almost daily, and there are still known issues, for example on AMD graphics cards. 64 of its last 100 commits list Claude as a co-author.

You needYour own dump of the PS4 version: the European 1.01 (CUSA08809) or the US 1.00 (CUSA08034), the two where the 60 fps and 16x filtering patches work; other versions run at 30 fps and, for sound, two system modules from your own console (libSceNgs2.sprx and libSceUlt.sprx). Plus 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 and a Vulkan 1.3 graphics card.

A native port of the PlayStation 4 version for Windows 10 and 11.

Since 0.60.3 the game can be finished from start to end (played through the last colossus, the ending, and the credits), with high-quality textures, PS4 Pro mode, and 60 frames per second. Known issues include crashes at the Maximum texture quality in very wide views and characters glowing white on AMD GCN cards. Version 0.60.6-opt11 (October 24) is the latest release. 67 of its last 100 commits list Claude as a co-author.
