Summary
Bigmak94 released an AI-assisted VR mod that makes 2018 PSVR exclusive Astro Bot Rescue Mission playable on Quest 3 natively and on PC VR headsets via streaming.
Claude modified shadPS4, an open-source PS4 emulator, producing two builds: a sideloadable Quest 3 version and a PC VR version for broader headset support.
The mod adds 6DOF headset tracking, native controller mapping and spatial audio, while also supporting a PS5 DualSense as a stand-in for the original PS4 controller.
Quest 3 standalone play is described as fully functional, but Bigmak94 said the mobile GPU is pushed to its limits, with lower resolution and visual fidelity than PS4 hardware or PC VR.
Players still need a dumped copy of the game from a console, and the release highlights how AI tools are accelerating VR modding for older titles Sony never ported to newer VR platforms.
