P.T. PC Port 1.0.0 - Native PC Port of the Original 2014 P.T.
After a lot of work, P.T. PC Port 1.0.0 is now available.
This is a native PC port of P.T., the 2014 PlayStation 4 teaser by Kojima Productions.
It is not an emulator and it is not one of the existing Unity/Unreal remakes. The game logic has been rebuilt in C++, with a custom Vulkan renderer, while the actual levels, models, textures, sounds and cutscenes are loaded directly from your own copy of the original PS4 game.
The port itself contains no P.T. game data.

What you need
- Your own copy of P.T. (CUSA01127), either as a usable PKG or a dumped game folder from your console.
- A store PKG cannot be used, as it is encrypted for the console that owns it.
- Windows 10 or 11, or Linux:
- Ubuntu 24.04+
- Debian 13+
- Fedora 39+
- Arch-based distributions
- SteamOS
- A GPU and driver supporting Vulkan 1.3.
- Steam Deck works. Install it in Desktop Mode and add the game to Steam afterward.
P.T. also requires a microphone for one part of the game, just like the original PS4 version. If you do not have one, a key can substitute for the required spoken word.
Installation
On Windows, run:
P.T.PC.Port.Setup.exe
On Linux, run:
P.T.PC.Port.Setup-linux
Make the Linux installer executable first if necessary.
Point the installer to your P.T. PKG or dumped game folder and choose where to install it. The installer copies the three game archives required by the port and creates a shortcut.
Running a newer installer over an existing installation will update it in place while keeping your save data.
The game
The entire teaser is playable, from the first wake-up to the final street sequence.
This includes the voice section, Lisa, traps, scripted events, camera behavior and timing recreated from the original PS4 version.
Input support includes:
- Mouse and keyboard
- PlayStation controllers
- Xbox controllers
- Nintendo/Switch-style controllers

Display and graphics
The port supports:
- Any resolution

- Optional letterboxing
Ultrawide rendering keeps effects such as the curved lens and film grain correctly proportioned instead of stretching them.

- Intel XeSS
- Native anti-aliasing
Frame generation
- DLSS Frame Generation on RTX 40-series and newer

Graphics presets
Low / Medium / Original (PS4) / High / Ultra
The Original preset aims to match the PS4 presentation.
Ultra traces soft shadows, contact shadows, ambient occlusion and reflections.
Original effects can also be disabled individually, including:
- Depth of field
- Motion blur
- Bloom
- Film grain
- Curved lens distortion
- Lens flare ghosts
There is also an optional Enhanced Textures mode, which upscales the textures from your own game data to 2x resolution with Real-ESRGAN once and caches the results locally.
No enhanced textures are distributed with the project.

- Field of view

Screenshots are saved directly to your Pictures folder.

It has not yet been tested on a real VR headset.

The repository includes:

Updates and privacy
The game and installer check the GitHub Releases page once at startup.
If a newer version exists, a small non-intrusive message is shown.
You can disable update checks completely by setting:
check_updates = 0
under the [network] section of pt.ini.
Nothing else goes online.
About the project
This project exists to preserve and reproduce the original P.T. experience natively on modern PCs without redistributing the game itself.
You must provide your own copy of P.T., and all copyrighted game assets used by the port are read from that copy.
P.T. is the work of Kojima Productions and belongs to Konami. This project is unofficial and is not affiliated with either company.
shadPS4 was used as a reference for how the original behaves.
If you find bugs, hardware-specific problems or differences from the original game, please report them on GitHub.
