Power Moon Recomp

By Zarathustra Dev. Per the README:

	Details
Versions	v0.1.0 on Nov 2, v0.1.5 the same day
Game version	Super Mario Odyssey 1.0.0 only, without updates
Progress	"Playable from start to finish": all kingdoms, bosses, 2D and 8-bit sections, the ending and post-game played through
Frame rate	60 fps; the game logic is tied to frame rate, so it can't go higher
Graphics	Vulkan, up to 4x resolution, FSR 1, SMAA
Mods	RomFS mods supported
Platforms	Windows and Linux playable; macOS (Metal) is an early beta
AI	Written "with heavy help from an AI coding agent (Claude)," directed and tested by a human

"Finishable" is the author's claim; PCMRace notes there is no independent testing yet. Like other recomps, it doesn't include the game; you build it from your own files.

GitHub ban and move to GitLab (author's account)

The project is now hosted on GitLab. Its original GitHub address returned 404 on November 3. Tarreo and PCMRace relay the author's account: the GitHub account was banned after the upload, so the project moved. Why the account was banned is unconfirmed: GitHub's public DMCA archive has no matching notice. Another Odyssey recomp, smo-recomp (targeting version 1.4.1, no release builds), is still on GitHub.

Bayonetta 3: Witch Time

Witch Time by Zexyen is a static recompilation of Bayonetta 3 for Windows and Linux. The author claims 60 fps in the Tokyo and Shibuya areas and resolutions up to 4K, with occasional stutter. The repository was created on October 24 and drew coverage around November 1.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: XCX Recomp

XCX Recomp by jmars125 (started October 31) runs Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition natively on Windows at 60 fps by default. Starting a new game, cutscenes and combat work. v0.1.3 fixed Soul Challenge prompts going too fast above 30 fps. Linux and Steam Deck builds are planned.

Where the recomp wave stands

Game	Project	Platforms	Status (per the project)
Super Mario Odyssey	Power Moon Recomp	Windows, Linux, macOS beta	Finishable (author's claim), 1.0.0 only
Bayonetta 3	Witch Time	Windows, Linux	60 fps in Tokyo and Shibuya, occasional stutter
Xenoblade Chronicles X: DE	XCX Recomp	Windows	60 fps default; new game, cutscenes, combat
Pokémon Pokopia (Switch 2)	pokopia-recomp	Windows	Test build, see the Pokopia story

These join the October projects for Link's Awakening, Smash Ultimate, Metroid Dread, TotK and others covered in the October recomp wave. As of November 3, 2026, GitHub's public DMCA archive has no Nintendo notice against any of them; the November folder did not exist yet, and GitHub publishes with a delay.

What this means for players

If you own Super Mario Odyssey 1.0.0, you can now try it as a native PC game with 4x resolution and mod support, though "finishable" has only the author's word behind it for now. The project has already changed hosts once, so it may move or disappear again. Copies repackaged with the game included are not from the project; see how to spot fake emulator sites.

If your copy is updated, or you want other games, a Switch emulator still covers more: see the Super Mario Odyssey compatibility page, the best Switch emulators in 2026, the Windows setup guide and hardware requirements. Bayonetta 3 and Xenoblade X details are on the Bayonetta 3 and Xenoblade X pages.

FAQ

Is there a PC port of Super Mario Odyssey?

Not an official one. Since November 2, 2026, an unofficial project called Power Moon Recomp turns your own copy of Super Mario Odyssey 1.0.0 into a native PC program through static recompilation. Windows and Linux are playable; the macOS build is an early beta.

Can you finish Super Mario Odyssey with Power Moon Recomp?

The author says yes: per the README, all kingdoms, bosses, 2D and 8-bit sections, the ending and post-game content were played through without problems. PCMRace notes there is no independent testing yet.

What game version does Power Moon Recomp need?

Version 1.0.0 of Super Mario Odyssey, without updates. It runs at 60 fps; higher is not possible because the game logic is tied to frame rate. Rendering is Vulkan with up to 4x resolution, FSR 1 and SMAA, and RomFS mods are supported.

Why is Power Moon Recomp on GitLab instead of GitHub?

Per Tarreo and PCMRace, the author says their GitHub account was banned after uploading the project, so it moved to GitLab. The original GitHub address returned 404 on November 3. The reason for the ban is unconfirmed, and GitHub's public DMCA archive has no matching notice.

Are there PC ports of Bayonetta 3 and Xenoblade Chronicles X?

Unofficial ones. Witch Time is a Bayonetta 3 static recompilation for Windows and Linux; its author claims 60 fps in the Tokyo and Shibuya areas and up to 4K, with occasional stutter. XCX Recomp runs Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition natively on Windows at 60 fps by default; new games, cutscenes and combat work, and Linux and Steam Deck are planned.

Is Power Moon Recomp better than an emulator for Odyssey?

It depends. Odyssey already runs well on Switch emulators, which take any game version and updates. The recomp runs without an emulation layer and adds options such as 4x resolution and RomFS mods, but only accepts 1.0.0 and is brand new.
