About this game

NOTE:

This version is meant for devices that have Android 8.0 or higher installed. As a result, it supports over double the amount of cores (127) as the regular version (50).

If you'd like the full-fat RetroArch version with a working Core Downloader, go to our website www.retroarch.com, and download the APK for your system there.

RetroArch is an open-source project that makes use of a powerful development interface called Libretro. Libretro is an interface that allows you to make cross-platform applications that can use rich features such as OpenGL, cross-platform camera support, location support, and more in the future.

This is a special 64bit version of RetroArch, for those with 64bit capable devices!

This is the best emulator to have on your phone for an array of games!! The only problem I ran into is that when I play a PSX game that uses the select button on the controller my PS4 controller is rendered useless, as the share button nor the touchpad act as a select button!! I don't have a different bluetooth controller, and I absolutely HATE touchscreen controls!! Could you please fix this??

I very much enjoy and advocate for Retroarch. The good is that it will play any system you would want and you can customize your experience very much. Generally runs smooth. Unfortunately I find that I waste a lot of times when the app resets my system configs. And won't read my save state files. Sometimes not even the rom save. I have these issues on Windows and Android. Today it crashed on me with 32X. I configure the emu, and a week later, I get unreliable framerates or audio issues.

There is an absolutely massive issue that ruins the experience constantly. Reconnecting a controller moves the port to the next one. This has been a requested fix for 4 years and nothing has been done to fix it. By the way, you CAN use the SD card to run games. Go to storage then tap the one corresponding to your sd card. 2023 Update: It's been fixed actually, AGES ago. It's because the libretro team haven't updated retroarch on the play store specifically for many years.
