As we’ve already reported, a new version of the most promising Xbox 360 emulator, Xenia, has been released. Thus, below you can find some videos showing a number of X360 games running on it.
To be more precise, below we can see Gears of War 2, Fable 2, Asura’s Wrath, Lost Odyssey, Silent Hill: Downpour and Anarchy Reigns running on Xenia. Some of these games run fine, while others are only booting and going in-game.
For instance, the first stage in Asura’s Wrath appears to be working fine and Lost Odyssey also appears to be running great. Gears of War 2 also appears to be running great, though it has some performance issues. On the other hand, while Fable 2 can go in-game, it has major framerate drops and graphical glitches.
It’s pretty obvious that Xenia is progressing nicely, something that will please a lot of PC gamers. Seriously, Gears of War 2 is almost playable at this point. As such, I’m pretty certain that we’ll be able to play all the classic Gears of War games by the end of 2019.
It will also be interesting to see whether there will be any additional performance improvements for Red Dead Redemption. Rockstar’s open-world title boots on both Xenia and RPCS3, so we are curious to see which emulator will be the one that will properly run it. By properly, I mean without any graphical glitches and with a stable framerate.
But anyway, enjoy the following videos and stay tuned for more!

Nobody cares
Ah, the Queen does . So bow down , or you already have, anyone who says, nobody cares, you really do care alot huh, and envy somethng too . Blocked .
Gears of war 2 and 3 come to papa 🙂
And Tenchu-Z still crashes at the exact same spot it has for the past 5 years. I mean, I know it’s not a high profile game or anything, but wow, maybe a “little” effort on that one would be appropriate, after 5 years.
They opened patreon relatively recently, and so far all work is pretty much done on volontier base so progress is slow. Be kind, donate to speed it up 😛 https://www.patreon.com/xenia_project
OH MY GOD…LOST ODYSSEY/> COME THE F*K YESSS
Very nice. Talking of emulators, I’ve been having a blast using Redream and TeknoparrotUI. PC is so damned awesome!
what are those?
redream is a sega dreamcas emulator…not sure about the other one.
TeknoparrotUI is a hub for emulating a ton of arcade coin-ops.

downpoor on pc…and it runs well, wow.
Also look how pretty Anya was on gears of war 2. Man western devs became oblivion and are incapable of designing female characters
good to see Lost Odyssey running emulated.
Not too happy though that it took a $2,000 PC to run it….
Gears of War 2 i have to play on PC via Xenia for sure!!! Thanks Xenia developers!!!
