Pegasus Frontend is a free interface for gathering game collections, viewing game information and media, and launching games or emulators. It supports themes that can reshape how a collection is displayed and navigated, along with gamepad, keyboard, mouse, and touch input. The interface is designed for screen sizes ranging from TVs to handhelds. Pegasus works with emulators and lets users configure how to launch them. Listed automatic game sources include Steam, GOG, Android apps, Lutris, EmulationStation, and LaunchBox, although availability varies by platform; Lutris support is experimental. For metadata, it can use its own files or read EmulationStation gamelists and related assets. Pegasus does not provide games, emulators, stores, or game assets, so users need to bring those from their own sources. Official releases are listed for Windows 7 or later, Linux, Raspberry Pi, Odroid, Android 5 or later, and macOS 10.13 or later. Android installation requires manually enabling APK installation, and Pegasus is not available from the Play Store.
