The Simpsons Game is an action-comedy platformer that was never released on PC. Instead, it came out on a lot of consoles in 2007, including the Nintendo DS, Wii, Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation Portable. And now, almost two decades later, we have an unofficial PC version of it.
The Simpsons Game Recompiled is based on the Xbox 360 version. It works on Windows, Linux, and Steam Deck. The game code is rebuilt for x86-64, so it runs directly on the CPU instead of using CPU emulation. Windows supports both Direct3D 12 and Vulkan, while Linux uses Vulkan.
The port supports 60 FPS gameplay. However, menus, loading screens, and the title screen stay at 30 FPS. You can also change the render scale for sharper graphics. The port supports supersampling, anisotropic filtering, and FXAA. A 2x or 3x render scale can make the game’s cartoon-style outlines look much cleaner.
PC players can use a controller or keyboard and mouse. Every key can be changed, including mouse buttons, the wheel, and side buttons. Camera controls can also be bound to keys. KB&M support is such a cool feature to have at launch.
Version 0.0.6.2 brings full keyboard and mouse support. The mouse now works as soon as the game window is active. It stays inside the game and is released when you switch windows. Linux and Steam Deck also use raw mouse input for smoother camera control.
Every control can now be changed. You can bind keys, mouse buttons, the wheel, and side buttons. You can also set mouse speed and invert the Y-axis. F1 shows all controls in the game, while F4 opens the settings. The default layout now uses WASD, mouse aiming, Space to jump, and left and right mouse buttons for attacks. Camera movement can also be bound to keys.
The launcher also gets a new light and dark theme. Settings now save as soon as you change them. Render scale and sharpening options have also been cleaned up. Launcher artwork works again, and a new log file makes bug reports easier.
And that’s not all. On Windows, the game now uses a better timer setting. This should help reduce audio issues and improve frame pacing.
The renderer also gets major speed gains. Steam Deck performance at 2x resolution rises to about 59 FPS from 50 FPS. Shader files are now precompiled, which helps prevent stutter when new areas load. Video memory use is also lower, while several unused GPU tasks are skipped.
Those interested can download this unofficial PC version of The Simpsons Game from here. As with all the other unofficial PC ports, it does not contain any in-game assets. So, to play it, you’ll have to provide your own Xbox 360 ISO.
In case you are into unofficial PC ports of console-exclusive games, you might want to try the following ones. Right now, you can download the unofficial PC ports of Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Crash Team Racing, and Duke Nukem: Zero Hour. You can also play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Majora’s Mask, Perfect Dark, and Jak & Daxter.
Furthermore, Brian Tate has brought the three classic SNES Donkey Kong Country games to PC. For our SNES fans, we also have a PC port of Star Fox. We also got a PC port of F-Zero. So, since we’ve already gotten a few SNES games, I’d really love to see a PC version of Jurassic Park with KB&M support and HD textures. Now that would be awesome.
In September 2026, we shared a lot of unofficial PC ports. So, you can download and enjoy on PC Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link, WET, The Darkness, Spider-Man: Edge of Time, Mercenaries, GTA: Liberty City Stories, Fable 2, Burnout Revenge, Super Mario Strikers, and Lost Odyssey.
And that’s not all of them. We also have the unofficial PC ports of Mario Party 4, Sonic Unleashed, GoldenEye 007, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Silent Hill, and Super Smash Bros. 64. Last month, we shared the unofficial PC ports of Gears of War 2 and Syphon Filter. In August 2026, we shared the PC ports of Diddy Kong Racing and Ace Combat 6. Let’s also not forget the unofficial PC versions of Wave Race 64, Blue Dragon, and Pikmin. Finally, you can download the PC ports of Ninja Gaiden 2, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Tekken 3, and Mario Kart Wii.
