We WILL Be Emulating GTA 6...
Main summary
Key takeaways
Main Argument
The video argues that rapid progress in emulation and game preservation could eventually make GTA 6 playable on PC, potentially before an official PC release. The main hurdle would be obtaining the game files, which would require a PlayStation 5 jailbreak to dump them. Once the files are available, emulator developers could work on compatibility.
The host stresses that this is a prediction, not a guarantee. Early performance could be limited or unstable.
Examples of Progress
- GTA 5 on PS5 emulation: Footage reportedly shows the PS5 version running at around 107 FPS on an RTX 4080, though it uses substantial hardware. The host says his own testing suggests the build is much more playable than earlier attempts.
- Driveclub: A community project combines CPU recompilation with PS4 graphics emulation to bring the PlayStation exclusive to PC. It offers features such as unlocked frame rates, resolution options, ultrawide support, and graphics settings.
- Forza Horizon 2: The Azimuth project runs the Xbox One version on Windows and Linux, including the host’s Linux setup. Online play is unavailable, but the graphics and much of the gameplay work. The host says the project helps preserve a version that differs from the older Xbox 360 release.
- Other titles: The video also discusses progress with Demon’s Souls and Bloodborne, including improved performance and features such as upscaling or frame generation in some builds.
Preservation and Ownership
The host sees emulation and related PC ports as important tools for preserving games that are locked to consoles, delisted, or difficult to buy. He criticizes digital-only distribution and the loss of ownership, arguing that retaining dumped game files can make long-term access and preservation possible.
He acknowledges concerns about AI-assisted or “vibecoded” projects, but supports using AI as an aid when the result is tested and functional.
Gamers and Sources Mentioned
The video mentions Mutahar (SomeOrdinaryGamers), Unreal Gaming PC, and the Azimuth project, as well as the broader emulation and game-preservation community.
