NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound (PPSA28002)

[JJenkx]

Tested NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound (PPSA28002) 01.006.000 natively on Linux 7.2.9 / Ryzen 9 7950X / Radeon RX 6650 XT, RADV Mesa 26.2.4. Unity (IL2CPP) with Wwise audio. Short bring-up check, not a full playability report.

Result

On plain main eb73c168bb, with no pull requests or environment variables on top, the title runs at a steady 59.94 FPS through:

• the title screen and the EULA prompt,
• the main menu (New Game / Options / Extras, with the credits under Extras),
• the opening story scenes,
• the first forest stage: HUD, "Press □ to attack" tutorial prompt, combat with enemies and the kill counter.

A scripted 300 s run had no driver stop. An earlier run on main 434e965d46 + #8618 + #8660 looked the same.

Setup

Unity titles need their own module folders converted (see docs/dev/GAME_TESTING.md):

relinker --registry --rpath <build>/core/libs/libs --module-dir Media/Modules --module-dir Media/Plugins eboot.elf app.elf

Unwrap eboot.bin, sce_module/*.prx, Media/Modules/*.prx (Il2cppUserAssemblies, PS5Util) and Media/Plugins/*.prx (AkSoundEngine, AkMotion, MasteringSuite, PSN, SaveData, lib_burst_generated) first. Keep each printed *.guest.prx next to its original in app0/.

Not verified

Audio output by ear (the Wwise banks load), later stages, save/load across runs, and long sessions. The import audit lists throwing stubs that were not reached in these runs: sceAjmBatchJobSetGaplessDecode, sceAjmInstanceCreate, sceAjmBatchStart, sceAjmBatchJobInitialize, sceSystemServiceParamGetString and sceSystemServiceLoadExec.

AI-assisted testing and report: yes, Claude Code.
