PS2 games in the browser: static recompilation to WebAssembly with a native runtime
Save to My finds to follow releases and star growth. Saved in this browser.
About the project
Static recompilation of PlayStation 2 games to WebAssembly with a native runtime: Emotion Engine code is translated to C++ and the PS2 OS and hardware are reimplemented, rendering via WebGPU. Games run in the browser without an emulator, using your own disc image.
Useful for
- Run Gran Turismo 4 or God of War II in the browser from your own disc image
- Build a WebAssembly version of a PS2 game using the repository scripts
- Study static recompilation of the R5900 and PS2 vector units from the open code

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 12, 2026, 12:01 UTC.
The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.
Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-12 (UTC), 09:26–11:45: 12 → 68 stars (+56). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +84 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 4 days old and already has 68 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
