Could you build this?
No Binary relinking of PS5 games to native Windows executables requires deep reverse-engineering of Sony's proprietary OS kernels, system libraries, and Vulkan-based graphics translation.
What it would actually take: Requires extensive knowledge of AMD64 ELF binary formats, Sony FreeBSD-derived kernel syscalls, proprietary GPU shaders (PSSL/AGC), and audio/input APIs. The system involves a custom static binary recompiler/relinker, an implementation of PS5 userland libraries translating to Win32/Vulkan, and deep low-level systems and binary analysis expertise.
