About PS3 Emulator

About this site

ps3-emulator.cc is an independent website that makes it easy to download RPCS3, the open-source PlayStation 3 emulator, for Windows, macOS and Linux, along with a plain-English overview of setup, compatibility and legal use. Our goal is to be a simple, honest starting point for anyone searching for a PS3 or PlayStation 3 emulator.

The emulator we point to is RPCS3, a free and open-source PlayStation 3 emulator and debugger written in C++ and released under the GNU General Public License Version 2. It was founded in 2011 and is maintained by a distributed team of developers and contributors. The download links on this site point to the genuine official builds - nothing is re-packaged, wrapped in a custom installer, or padded with extras. If you want to read the source, build it yourself, report a bug or contribute, you can visit the official RPCS3 project on GitHub.

We keep privacy simple. ps3-emulator.cc is a static website that does not collect personal data. There are no advertising networks, no analytics tracking, and no tracking cookies set by this site. We do not ask you to create an account or submit personal information.

Like almost all websites, our hosting provider may keep standard server logs (for example IP address, browser type and the pages requested) for security and reliability. When you click a download link, you leave this site and are subject to the privacy practices of the destination, such as GitHub. We recommend reviewing their policies if you have questions about how they handle data.
