Networking is supported out of the box; Connect to other instances of Xemu emulator and even real Xboxes, locally or over the Internet.
Built on SDL2, Xemu supports virtually all gamepads. Connect up to 4 controllers at any time, just like a real Xbox.
No need to wait for game checkpoints, Xemu supports saving the current state and loading it back up at any time.

The Xemu project does not endorse or promote piracy; We don’t link to copyrighted files, or discuss how to acquire commercial games.

You may see an error called app not installed or installation blocked due to security reasons.
If you see these errors, you have to uninstall and try to follow the guide above again.
This app does not contain the official Xbox dashboard; instead it contains only an unsigned “dummy” dashboard, intended to be replaced.
It is not strictly required to replace the dummy dashboard because games can still be launched with the dummy dashboard installed.
Because the dummy dashboard is unsigned, you may see an error message when starting Xemu emulator with an unmodified retail BIOS image due to the system failing to find a properly signed dashboard.
