What do your efforts get you? In my opinion, one of the best emulators around. Gran Turismo 3 running on an Xbox Series S (Image credit: Future) On first inspection, you will get access to a few emulation cores, but any that aren’t immediately available will need to be legally sourced and uploaded from your own console. That can be done either remotely via the IP address site used above, or via a memory stick and the My Files Explorer app. Now, it’s a case of downloading a UWP version of the Retroarch emulator onto your computer and installing it via the online tool.Īnd after some tweaks to make sure Retroarch runs smoothly (changing program type to “game” rather than “app,” updating assets, controller profiles and BIOS files), you’ve got a stable emulator ready to add games to. Once set up, you’ll see an IP address for local area network access to your Xbox that you can use to remotely install apps onto your console via your PC. From there, it’s just a case of signing up for a Microsoft Developer Account for $19, connecting it to your Xbox and boom - you have developer mode on your Xbox. To tee things off, you need to search for “Dev Mode Activation” on your Xbox app store, then install and open it.
