Retrix(LibretroRT) is a massive project aimed at porting all libretro cores to UWP. It currently supports Nes,Snes,Sega Master System,Sega Game gear, Sega CD, sg 1000, Playstation, Gameboy, Gameboy advance, and many more to be ported soon. This guide will cover installing Retrix for your xbox one console.

https://github.com/wiired24/ProjectPegasus/raw/master/ProjectPegasusSetup.exe





[2.] Once Installed just open it up and select RetriX. Now just wait for it to download. All you have to do now is Sideload Retrix on to your Xbox One (If you don't know how, follow the full guide here https://github.com/wiired24/ProjectPegasus/blob/master/binaries/Installing APPX Packages.pdf )

[3.] Enjoy! :yayone:

Retrix brings with it support for local 2 player something we have not had until now. It also opens the floodgates to every single emulator that is currently inside the scope of the libretro project. You can see a full list here https://github.com/libretro

I had been sitting on releasing Retrix for quite a bit now but it has finally reached a point where it is stable enough for release. Credit goes to Albertofustonini for creating and maintaining the Retrix Project. Credit also goes to @kingtut for advocating for a Libretro/Retroarch port for Xbox One. You can follow current development on the official github page https://github.com/Aftnet/LibretroRT

I’m just messing with you about the 4K thing. It runs really well on the One X. Just get the dev license and you’ll be good

you cant on xbox one

I actually tried reading something from my usb now on the kodi xbox one version, and it now works. It shows all the content, and the directory loads.

My only problem at the moment is I don't know what format it wants retroarch to be. The executable file doesn't work (the file scan can't find it, it can find the folders correctly though.

Hello there.

Does anyone know what happened to the RetroArch fro Xbox One?? Can anyone please tell me why there's no longer the option to download the retroarch from the official website??

I just bought a dev account update for my account and have it on my Xbox One X :(.
