Hideo Kojima Acknowledges Fan-Made P.T. Port That Runs Natively on PC

Hideo Kojima has acknowledged a fan-made port of P.T. that allows the game to run natively on Windows, making it playable for a wide majority of users after it was relegated to PS4 hell.

P.T. released in August 2014. Standing for ‘Playable Teaser,’ it was exactly that — a short demo of what was supposed to be the next Silent Hill game helmed by Hideo Kojima and starring Norman Reedus.

Unfortunately, due to Kojima’s falling out with Konami, the title was scrapped and the demo wiped from the PlayStation store in 2015. And that’s a shame, because it’s one of the most terrifying games ever made.

Luckily, a dedicated fan has worked tirelessly to make P.T. playable for those who either deleted it from their PS4s or who never got a chance to play it before it got nuked. A modder by the name LoreanXavier has revived the famous horror title on PC, and he says it’s about 97% complete at the time of writing.

The modder explained that this port isn’t an emulator or a remake of the game from the ground up; on his official Discord server documenting the project, he explained that he is essentially “reverse-engineering” the executable of the PlayStation 4, using the game’s original assets, as well as C++ and Vulcan, to make a version of the title that plays on PC with a dedicated Windows program.

” It even includes the game’s voice-recognition section.
