RPCS3 for iOS
RPCS3 for iOS is an experimental port of RPCS3, bringing PlayStation 3 emulation to compatible Apple mobile devices. The project aims to deliver a familiar console-style experience with a PS3-inspired XrossMediaBar (XMB) interface, controller support, customizable themes, game artwork, and ongoing performance improvements.
As an experimental emulator port, compatibility, performance, and stability can vary depending on the device, game, and current build.
Key Features
- PS3-Style XMB Interface: Enjoy a familiar PlayStation 3-inspired interface with animated waves, icons, navigation sounds, and controller-friendly access to games, settings, and trophies.
- Customizable Themes: Personalize the XMB interface with different themes, colors, fonts, and wallpapers selected from the Photos library.
- Game Artwork and Previews: Browse your game library with artwork and animated previews for a more console-like experience.
- In-Game XMB Menu: Access an in-game menu with Pause, Resume, Return to Game, performance information, and logs.
- ProMotion Support: Take advantage of ProMotion displays for smoother XMB navigation on compatible devices.
- Performance Monitoring: Use the compact performance display or expand it to view additional information, including thermal warnings.
- Controller Rumble: Benefit from improved controller vibration support in compatible configurations.

Features such as ProMotion, controller rumble, and performance monitoring may depend on compatible hardware and the current build.

The emulator is intended to run compatible PlayStation 3 game data. Users should check the project's official documentation for supported game formats, firmware requirements, and instructions for preparing their own legally obtained game files.
The availability of individual features and supported games may change as development continues.
