# RatchetPort: a PS4 Ratchet & Clank runtime for Windows

> RatchetPort runs the PS4 version of Ratchet & Clank (2016), CUSA01047 USA v1.00, through a native Windows runtime derived from SpartanPort with shadPS4 rendering components. Its game-specific research identifies executable sites for timing, motion blur and resolution work. The author reports 30 FPS gameplay on one RTX 5070 Laptop configuration, while compatibility and long-session stability remain unresolved.
