XenonRecomp is a software tool that converts Xbox 360 executables into C++ code, allowing for the potential porting of Xbox 360 games to PC. This process is unofficial and may face challenges from original publishers. While some games, like Sonic Unleashed, have already been ported, the complexity of the process may limit the number of successful transitions. Many Xbox 360 titles were delisted from the marketplace when the old Xbox Store was closed, and XenonRecomp may be a key method for preserving these games. Xbox head Phil Spencer has shown interest in exploring options for delisted Xbox 360 games.
XenonRecomp is a project focused on preserving Xbox 360 games by transforming them into native x86 software, enhancing their graphical fidelity. The Xbox Series X currently supports only 632 out of 2,155 Xbox 360 titles through emulation. XenonRecomp faces challenges such as understanding system architecture, supporting PowerPC instructions, and addressing the lack of MMIO support. Developers must also obtain assets from legal copies of the original games. The game Sonic Unleashed has been successfully ported using this method, with enhancements demonstrated by Modern Vintage Gamer.
