fpPS4 VS austral

PlayStation 4: fpPS4 is the best PS4 Emulator according to the emulation wiki (PS4 Emulation is very early in development so it's not recommended you use PS4 emulation): Download fpPS4

Yes, in fact the PS4 is beginning to see HLE with various emulators, most notably fpPS4 (free pascal PS4).

There's a couple actually. Spine was the most impressive at the time of its last release, but it's been about a year since that release and whether it's still being developed is still unknown. fpPS4 and Obliteration seems to be the most promising right now.

PS4 emulation is in the works, but playing something like Ghosts of Tsushima is years away. fpPS4 and Obliteration are experimental emulators / compatibility layers, but they’ve only been in development for a few years and can just boot simple games. That being said, Ghost of Tsushima was one of many games listed in the GeForce NOW leak from Ighor July a few years ago; Since then, many of the games listed have indeed been announced for PC, so a PC port might be on its way.

There's a PS4 emulator being developed in Pascal. For real.

Mostly, but I'm told the new Austral[1] language has syntax very similar to that of Pascal's.

For the first couple of items on the list, Austral might be a language worth considering:

It's new so it obviously doesn't have the community of libraries to use, but it does have a very friendly and accessible Pascal-like syntax, while also having a state of the art linear type system.

For something more new look at Austral.

https://austral-lang.org has linear types and doesn’t use RAII but it doesn’t have defer.
