fpPS4: A Lightweight PS4 Emulator for Windows
fpPS4 is a free, partially functional PlayStation 4 emulator designed for Windows users. While it serves more as a compatibility layer for PS4 games developed in Free Pascal, it requires users to follow a series of complex setup steps before they can start playing. For ease of use, a dedicated launcher like fpPS4 Temmie’s Launcher is recommended, allowing users to execute the emulator seamlessly. Alternatively, advanced users can launch the emulator manually, which may pose challenges for those less experienced with such setups.
One of the key features of fpPS4 is its compatibility with a wide range of gamepads, allowing users to remap controls according to preference. The emulator also supports keyboard usage, albeit not optimally, and even enables mouse control to simulate Dual Shock touchpad functionality. With a growing list of playable titles that can be checked on the developer's website, fpPS4 stands out as a lightweight and effective option for emulating PS4 games, positioning itself as a potential benchmark in the realm of eighth-generation console emulation.
