Complete BIOS and firmware packs for Batocera, BizHawk, EmuDeck, Lakka, MiSTer FPGA, ROCKNIX, Recalbox, RetroArch, RetroBat, RetroDECK, RetroPie, and RomM.
**7,652** verified files across **396** systems, ready to extract into your emulator's BIOS directory.
Pick your platform below and extract the pack: it carries every file its emulators load, read from their source code. Nothing to configure, nothing to hunt down.
## Quick Install
@@ -56,12 +56,13 @@ The RetroDECK pack already contains its own `bios/` folder, so it extracts into
BIOS, firmware, and system files for consoles from Atari to PlayStation 3.
Every file passes its platform's own verification; where an emulator profile exists, the expected hashes and sizes are read from the emulator's source code (the Source-backed column below).
- **0 files missing** from the packs: every file the platforms' emulators load is in the collection. Files needed only by emulators no platform ships yet are counted in the [gap analysis](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/gaps/)

The BIOS and firmware files are not covered by that license: they are third-party system software, preserved and provided for personal backup, archival, and interoperability with emulation software.
The legal reasoning is laid out in the [FAQ](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/wiki/faq/#is-this-legal).
