Short answer

Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation (Xbox 360, 2007) runs natively on Windows through AC6Recomp, an unofficial static recompilation on the ReXGlue SDK. It adds 60 FPS, sharper terrain, resolution scaling, ultrawide and AC7-style mouse controls, but it is still a work in progress. It needs your own US copy. Latest release: 1.0.0-beta.2, 17 August 2026.

What it is

Ace Combat 6 was an Xbox 360 exclusive and never came to PC or later consoles.

AC6Recomp is “a native PC port of Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation built on top of the ReXGlue SDK. The Xbox 360 PowerPC game code is statically recompiled to x86-64” (AC6Recomp README). It carries a clear caution: “This project is still work in progress. It can boot and run in-game, but bugs, crashes, and missing functionality should be expected.”

Current status

  • Status: Working, beta. 1.0.0-beta.2, 17 August 2026.
  • Activity: last updated on 22 August 2026.

Features

From the README (each can be turned off individually):

  • 60 FPS, with the flight model corrected.
  • High-quality terrain at the full resolution on the disc, without cracks over mountains.
  • Resolution scaling to 2× (1440p), 3× (2160p) and beyond.
  • Ultrawide hor+ support in missions and cutscenes.
  • AC7-like keyboard and mouse controls, remappable; controllers work out of the box.
  • Japanese language support and texture replacement mods.

What you need

  • Your own copy of Ace Combat 6, US region. The README: “Europe and Japan is not supported.”
  • A Windows PC. The README notes that meeting its system requirements does not guarantee good performance.

The README stresses that the repository “does not contain, and will never contain, any game data”. We do not link any either.

How setup works (overview)

  1. Download a build from the releases page, or build it from source.
  2. Follow the README’s steps to point it at your US game files.
  3. Launch, adjust resolution, frame rate and controls, and fly.
