Furthermore, the developed notes that the Sony PlayStation Vita Emulator is not going to be power-hungry. The minimum requirement for the emulator is an Arm64 chipset with Vulkan 1.0 support. And the device needs to be Android 7.0 or higher. However, we are yet to know about the minimum SoC and RAM requirements.
Nonetheless, the developer notes that you can play most of the PlayStation Vita 2D titles if your device meets the minimum requirements. And it is worth noting that the developer used POCO F3 to come up with the port.
In addition to that, the developer states that this Android port of Vita3K supports custom drivers on Snapdragon devices. More specifically, Adreno 600 series devices or higher will be able to utilize the open-source Turnip graphics driver, which will lead to a “big speed increase.”
That said, we will surely get more info about the PlayStation Vita emulator when it releases on February 12. So, stay tuned for more info.
