The popular PlayStation 3 emulator, RPCS3-Android, has just received a major update, introducing crucial improvements that enhance PS3 gaming on Android devices. This latest release brings long-awaited features, making the emulator more user-friendly and accessible.
What’s New in the Latest Update?
The most notable addition is the new settings menu, which allows users to customize their gaming experience without manually modifying text files. This makes it easier to tweak graphics settings, adjust performance, and optimize gameplay.
Other key improvements include:
- Custom GPU Driver Support – The update enhances compatibility with Snapdragon-powered devices, improving performance when using Turnip drivers.
- Better Stability – Bug fixes and optimizations ensure fewer crashes and a smoother gaming experience.
- Improved UI – The emulator’s interface is now more user-friendly, allowing for easier navigation.
What’s Still Missing?
Despite the improvements, RPCS3-Android still lacks Bluetooth controller support. Currently, only USB-C controllers like the Razer Kishi work with the emulator. However, developers are actively working on expanding controller compatibility, which could arrive in future updates.
What’s Next for RPCS3-Android?
The emulator remains in its alpha stage, meaning further refinements and new features will continue rolling out. The latest versions (alpha 5.0 and 5.1) are available for download on GitHub, allowing gamers to test the newest improvements.
While it’s still not a perfect solution for PS3 emulation on Android, RPCS3-Android is making significant strides toward a stable, high-performance release. With continuous development, Android users can expect even better gameplay, enhanced graphics, and full controller support in the near future.
