Vita3K emulator for Android
INFO
Vita3K is the world’s first functional experimental open-source Play Station Vita emulator for Android OS.
The emulator currently runs some homebrew programs. It is also able to load some decrypted commercial games.
Vita3K is licensed under the GPLv2 license. This is largely dictated by external dependencies, most notably Unicorn.
FEATURES
Over the last 2 years, the graphics backend of the emulator has gradually improved. While unfortunately it’s not yet perfect, it’s good enough for the majority of the Vita’s library.
The project is at an early stage, so please be sensitive to that when opening new issues. Expect crashes, glitches, low compatibility and poor performance.
Currently, Vita3K supports maidumps, .pkg, NoNpDrm, FAGDec, or manually decrypted games (Vitamin dumps are not supported).
The games should be in a .zip or .vpk format if you want to install them from the emulator, or if you prefer to copy them yourself, you can drag and drop the game folder in your pref_path/ux0/app folder (not applicable for NoNpDrm dumps/.pkg files).
DISCLAIMER
Please note that the purpose of the emulator is not to enable illegal activity.
