Note: if using an Xbox One console, it will be a different app just grab the app that has an icon that matches your device! It will have a green icon that says “Devkit Activation”.

On your Xbox, search for the app “Xbox Dev Mode”.

Let’s head over to the Xbox and get that set up. In the top-right corner, click on the “+” icon and it will prompt you to enter an activation code.

Now that you are registered on your PC, head to the activation URL and it will take you to a “Manage Xbox consoles” section.

Once complete, you will be taken to the developer dashboard.

Performance will be worse than on the Xbox Series consoles while I haven’t tested it myself, I have been told that the Xbox One is more than capable of playing Dreamcast and below. Note that this guide will work on Xbox One consoles too, but will require a different DevKit Activation app (more info in that section of the guide). For further exploration of specific systems, I recommend checking out his channel, and consider contributing to his Patreon page. Many of the files used in this guide (including the reverted versions of RetroArch cores for PS2) are borrowed from his tutorials.

This guide would not be possible without the excellent work done by Ryan over at Archades Games, whose Xbox emulator tutorials are comprehensive and relevant. But the use of these apps is a little sketchy since they circumnavigate Microsoft’s Dev Mode, and so for this guide we will only focus on the Dev Mode process and official RetroArch releases. There are other ways of playing retro games on your Xbox, to include getting whitelisted for an app store that launches a fork of RetroArch from the retail Xbox side, as well as a program called Tnavigator.

It does take some configuration to get set up, and so this guide will help you through that process and get you well on your way for all the retro gaming your heart could desire.

In addition to running classic games up to PS2 with higher resolutions, you maintain all of the functionality of the retail Xbox, and the whole endeavor is completely legal and available through Xbox’s Dev Mode process (after a $19 fee). Considering that the Xbox Series S retails for $300, I decided to pick one up and test its performance against a similarly-priced PC, and the results are fantastic. In my quest to find great emulation at a budget price, the idea of running games on the Xbox series devices recently came on my radar. * While HDR already works on the UWP version on PC, on Xbox there are currently several deal-breaking display issues with it, so it remains disabled there for now.Last updated: 16SEP2021 (see Changelog for details) Previously, it would always compile frontend shaders against Shader Model 4.0, and unfortunately the AMD FSR shader that has just been added needs SM 5.0 capabilities in order to work.

* We now let Direct3D 11 compile frontend shaders against Shader Model 5.0 (SM 5.0) in case your graphics card driver supports D3D11 Feature Level 11.0 or higher. If it doesn’t show up, your display device might simply not support HDR. In Windows, go to ‘Display Settings’ (pictured below) and make sure the HDR setting is turned on. Make sure HDR is enabled in Windows in case you don’t see it pop up. In case you don’t see the option, and you have made sure first that your driver is set to Direct3D 11/12, it might be that HDR is disabled in Windows 10. In order to change to D3D11/12, go to Settings -> Drivers, and change Video to ‘D3D11/12’.

* The HDR settings can be found in Settings -> Video when you are using the Direct3D 11 or 12 driver. We have now added HDR (High Dynamic Range) support to RetroArch’s Direct3D 11/12 driver thanks to a generous contributor!

RetroArch creators pointed out that Linux is well behind Windows when it comes to HDR support, though they hope that will change in the future. The other big addition is HDR support, though this only works in the Direct3D 11/12 driver right now.
