Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise

Game: Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise (PS4, 2018)

PortGaGotoku runs Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise (Hokuto ga Gotoku, PS4, CUSA12781) on Windows, as a fork of deadinside28’s native Bloodborne port (bbport): the game’s x86-64 code runs directly on the CPU, a runtime reimplements the PS4’s system libraries, and a renderer derived from shadPS4 translates the graphics to Vulkan. Its author clarifies that “native” refers only to the CPU: it is not a full recompilation or a rewrite of the renderer. It is an early alpha, developed in spare time with no schedule: it is experimental and playable on the one machine it has been tested on (Windows 11 with a GeForce RTX 5070). It has its own launcher. The latest stable release, 0.1.2-alpha, is from October 22; there is also a Linux and Steam Deck test build from October 27, marked untested.

You needYour own legal dump of the PS4 game (the CUSA12781 folder with eboot.bin and sce_sys). Windows with a Vulkan-capable GPU; tested on Windows 11, an RTX 5070, and an 8BitDo controller in XInput mode.
