EA SPORTS UFC 3: a native PS4 game port for Linux and Windows
The EA SPORTS UFC 3 port runs the PS4 game's original x86-64 code on Linux and Windows. A game-specific runtime supplies PS4 system services, while a renderer derived from shadPS4 translates GPU work to Vulkan; the user supplies the game's CUSA06534 dump and update 1.14.
