# FNC Reborn: a Fight Night Champion static-recompilation port

> FNC Reborn builds a Windows port of Fight Night Champion from the player's Xbox 360 disc using ReXGlue static recompilation. Its game-specific code adds frame-rate controls, a boxer-following camera and a settings tab, while its installer extracts the disc and builds the executable locally.
