About this independent website

Who maintains what?

This website is maintained through the finalgod2003/ps2-web-recomp website repository. Contact the site maintainer through GitHub Issues for website bugs, corrections and compatibility reports. Issues are public; do not post private information.

The recompilation engine is Samir Nuri’s PS2 Web Recomp. Direct emulation is provided by the separate Play! project. This site is independent of those projects and is not affiliated with Sony, PlayStation or game publishers.

Inspect the helper before running it

The compilation helper source is available alongside the downloadable script. It runs on your computer and downloads upstream code and build dependencies. The current helper pins engine revision f3a550b797de04b6380394e52532c03902bb03c4; this is not a verified version for every game.

See the third-party notices, website changelog and source history.

Local builds execute code

The launcher reads selected build files and ISO slices through a local service worker. The launcher does not upload those files. However, imported HTML and JavaScript execute in this website’s origin, are not sandboxed away from the launcher, and may access site storage, selected session files or the network. File-format validation is not a security review. Only load builds you created or trust.

The separate Play!.js frame contacts playjs.purei.org after you open it. It receives the files you select inside its own chooser. The frame is allowed autoplay, fullscreen, gamepad and cross-origin isolation; camera, microphone and location are disabled by this website’s permission policy. The embedded frame uses temporary credentialless storage. The standalone player has a different storage context.

Read the privacy and storage policy before using either route. No game images, BIOS files or compiled commercial games are supplied here.
