## What's WinDurango?
WinDurango is an experimental compatibility layer and emulator for **Xbox One** games on Windows. It aims to recreate the console environment so titles can run natively on PC hardware. Development is still in its early stages.

## You should go to the [GitHub page to download](https://github.com/WinDurango/WinDurango) :)
Download, test some games out, report issues on GitHub, and contribute ideas. Makes some games run too, I've been waiting for Forza Horizon 2.

> [!NOTE]
> This project is still being worked on, and we **really** need help as we only have a few developers.
> If you know C++ and think you can help out, hop into the Discord and let us know. :)

Come chat with us on our [Discord](https://discord.gg/mHN2BgH7MR).
For developer chat join `#developer` but stay on topic. Lurking is not only fine, but encouraged!

See the [Game compatibility list](https://windurango.github.io/Documentation/playable-games.html)

The goal of this project is to experiment, research, and educate on the topic
of emulation of modern devices and operating systems. **It is not for enabling
illegal activity**. All information is obtained via reverse engineering of
legally purchased devices and games and information made public on the internet
