Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about playing PC & console game ports directly in your browser.
How do PC and console games run directly in a web browser without installation?
Browser ports compile native C/C++ game engines or open-source decompilations (such as Ship of Harkinian or SM64) into WebAssembly (Wasm) and render graphics through WebGL or WebGPU. Audio is handled via the Web Audio API, and gamepads connect directly using the HTML5 Gamepad API—delivering near-native 60 FPS performance without requiring any plugins or executable downloads.
Are browser game ports free to play?
Yes! All browser ports curated on Ported To Browser are completely free to launch in modern web browsers. Decompiled engines require you to provide your own legally owned game ROM or asset file, while open-source, freeware, and shareware ports load directly in one click.
Can I use an Xbox, PlayStation, or Switch controller?
Yes. Every port on our platform supports the native HTML5 Gamepad API. Simply connect your controller via USB or Bluetooth, press any button on the title screen, and your controller will be recognized automatically with zero configuration.
How does game save progression work in the browser?
Game saves and memory cards are automatically stored locally in your browser's IndexedDB and localStorage sandbox. Your save files persist across browser sessions. You can also export and backup your .sav files at any time on supported game pages.
