RPCS3 is a multi-platform open-source Sony Play Station 3 emulator and debugger written in C# compatible with iOS (iPhone and iPad devices).
The purpose of the project is to completely and accurately emulate the Sony Play Station 3 Computer Entertainment System in its entirety with the power of open-source community and reverse engineering.
The developers goal is to preserve the legacy of the Play Station 3 hardware and its vast library by bringing it and its exclusives to the mobile platform.
The RPCS3 emulator team want to achieve this by targeting and supporting multiple operating systems as well as being compatible with a wide range of smartphone hardware with realistic requirements.
The project was founded by programmers DH and Hykem in May of 2011.
RPCS3 emulator was first hosted on Google Code and was eventually migrated to GitHub later on in its development.
The emulator’s first successful game boot were primarily composed of smaller homebrew projects and focused hardware tests.
The emulator was later publicly released in June of 2012 and gained substantial attention from both the open-source community and Play Station enthusiasts alike.
Today, RPCS3 emulator is co-developed by two new developers, Nekotekina and kd-11 in tandem with an amazing team of GitHub contributors.
