# Azazel6: an experimental Tekken 6 PSP static recompilation for Android

> Azazel6 researches a native Android ARM64 port of Tekken 6 for PSP by translating selected Allegrex/MIPS code ahead of time to C++ and building a PSP service host. It includes executable analysis, an import inventory and bounded startup probes. The author reports that translated startup reaches graphics initialization; the game remains unplayable.
