No This is static recompilation of a PS5 game binary plus a custom Win32 compatibility layer and a Direct3D 12 to Vulkan translation path. That requires deep systems, reverse engineering, and graphics-driver expertise that vibe coding cannot substitute for.
What it would actually take: A real version means disassembling and lifting the console's PowerPC/x86 game code into a native build, then reimplementing OS APIs and GPU calls on top of vkd3d and RADV. It requires low-level reverse engineers, graphics programmers, and a lot of per-title debugging time.
