What platforms can run RetroArch? How do I get it running on my console?

But Libretro has promised that increased use of Steam functionality will happen down the road. The Steam release of RetroArch will start out simply as a means of launching RetroArch from inside Steam, in a sort of Russian nesting doll manner of software launching other software. It was originally meant to arrive in July, but Libretro wants to 'ensure the release is more polished and that it will meet the user expectations of your average Steam user.' When is the RetroArch Steam release coming? And how will it be different?Īccording to a July 25 post, RetroArch's Steam program is slated to arrive in Q3 2019. RetroArch also supports a wide range of input devices and allows input profiles to be set across all cores. This uses RAM-loaded save states to reduce input lag as much as possible. RetroArch can also improve the performance of games when using certain cores with a 'run-ahead' feature. More importantly, RetroArch provides a solution for running emulators on systems other than PC, and it sports a controller-friendly clone of the PS3 XMB menu design. What are the benefits of RetroArch over regular emulation?Īside from the convenience of unifying your settings among emulators, RetroArch provides an easy-to-use interface to help you navigate all of the different emulators and games you have running. RetroArch tries to solve that by tying everything together into one easy-to-use program. If you're deep into emulation already on PC, you may already know that running multiple programs - each with its own controller settings and resolutions, hot keys and other quirks - can get cumbersome.
