Default ARMSX2, the future of PS2 emulation on Android, gets first big release

TL;DR
  • The ARMSX2 emulator for Android has just received its V1.0 release on GitHub, with a Play Store release coming later this week.
  • The app differs from NetherSX2 due to its open-source nature and its use of a more recent foundation.
  • NetherSX2 still offers better performance, though, while this ARMSX2 release had a major bug for some.
PS2 emulation on Android has been in a strange place since the pioneering AetherSX2 app was abandoned. Some developers took over this shuttered project and made impressive changes to it (resulting in NetherSX2), but the somewhat closed nature and aging foundation suggest this isn’t a long-term solution. Fortunately, the ARMSX2 emulator has been in testing for a while, and it’s finally received a version 1.0 release.
