Could you build this?

No Porting a closed-source PlayStation 4 Fox Engine game binary to run natively on PC from extracted PS4 files requires elite reverse engineering, disassembly, and custom graphics API translation.

What it would actually take: This requires reverse engineering the encrypted/compiled PS4 Orbis OS executable using tools like Ghidra/IDA Pro, reimplementing proprietary Sony system libraries (GNM graphics, audio, I/O), and mapping the Fox Engine shaders and calls to DirectX 11/12 or Vulkan in C++. It demands elite systems programming and console emulation/decompilation expertise.
