Mega Man X5

PlayStation · 2026

Mega Man X5 recompiled, with widescreen and frame interpolation mods and FMV decoding with auto-skip.

Mega Man X5 is the middle entry in PSXRecomp's run of PlayStation X games, sitting between Mega Man X4 and Mega Man X6. The current release is v0.0.2-alpha (2026-08-01), so this is an early project.

What works today

The game runs through the recompiled runtime, with FMV decoding working and an auto-skip option for those who have seen the cutscenes enough times.

Enhancements

16:9 widescreen and frame interpolation ship as mods, both off by default.

A community randomizer fork is underway, building on this recompilation as its base.

No game data is distributed; the project builds from your own legally dumped disc image.
