As of August 2018, RPCS3 has been able to play more than 33% of the PS3 library from start to finish. The emulator is capable of running over 1000 1,000 games at a playable speed with no major glitches<ref name="Compatibility Page">https://rpcs3.net/compatibility</ref>, though it requires very demanding hardware on most games. On June 2018 after a few improvements and fixes, at least most [https://rpcs3.net/blog/2018/07/15/progress-report-june-2018/ PlayStation 1 Classic titles] became playable.

Since the emulator started getting funded on Patreon, development has been progressing quickly, so more games are expected to be playable in the near future.
