# Xenia Canary Xbox 360 Emulator — Setup Guide, Best Settings, and Compatible Games 2026

I want to play Xbox 360 games on my PC using the Xenia emulator. I downloaded Xenia but my games are not loading, I'm getting a DirectX 12 error, or the game crashes immediately. I'm also not sure which build to use (Xenia vs Xenia Canary), what disc image format works best, or which games are compatible in 2026.
