|At the time of writing Cxbx-Reloaded is almost purely HLE. LLE GPU emulation is planned, but currently not implemented.

|Cxbx-Reloaded supports LLE GPU emulation which was taken from XQEMU. At the time of writing, the LLE GPU is significantly slower than in XQEMU.

|The decision was made to create an HLE / LLE Xbox emulation project which is maintained similar to Dolphin or Citra. A key focus was on design simplicity. The project started as a continuation of kvmbox, with devices being copied from the XQEMU source code. The project was called kvmbox-reloaded, while the name was being decided. The HLE portion was never worked on.

|Xexec is an Xbox executable loader & emulator for x86/x64 Linux; handles direct execution of x86 code, executing Xbox game code directly on the CPU, in userspace Linux; All Windows kernel calls from Xbox game code are translated into POSIX syscalls, with no dependency on Wine.
