Xbox 360 Recompiled Games
Xbox 360 recompilation has produced two complete PC ports: Unleashed Recompiled for Sonic Unleashed, and Skate 3 Recomp. Since v2.0.0, Skate 3 Recomp draws through its own Direct3D 12 and Vulkan renderer instead of emulating the console's GPU, and community builds now take the same code to Android and iOS.

- 4 in progress
XenonRecomp, from hedge-dev, the team behind Unleashed Recompiled, translates Xbox 360 PowerPC executables into C++ that compiles into native programs. Both PC ports are listed as Playable; the phone builds of Skate 3 are pre-release.
No Xbox 360 decompilation meets this list's inclusion rules yet. The console's games are far larger than N64 or PS2 titles, and so far recompilation has been the practical route to native builds.

Xbox 360 recomp FAQ
What is an Xbox 360 recomp?
An Xbox 360 recomp translates a game's Xenon PowerPC code into C++ ahead of time, for example with XenonRecomp, and compiles it into a native PC program. Unleashed Recompiled and Skate 3 Recomp are built this way.
Is an Xbox 360 recomp an emulator?
No. An emulator such as Xenia runs the original code at runtime. A recomp runs translated native code; Skate 3 Recomp also replaced the emulated Xbox 360 GPU with its own Direct3D 12 and Vulkan renderer in v2.0.0.
Do I need my own Xbox 360 game?
Yes. Every project listed here needs a copy of the game you own and ships no game code or assets. Recompedia does not provide ROMs, ISOs, BIOS files or game assets, and does not link to them.
Which Xbox 360 games are playable right now?
As of Oct 18, 2026, the Xbox 360 entries marked Playable are: Skate 3 (Skate 3 Recomp) and Sonic Unleashed (Unleashed Recompiled). The Android and iOS builds of Skate 3 are pre-release.
