Play all the Grand Theft Auto games on your Android phone (without cloud gaming).

The possibilities of emulating all GTA games on an Android phone without cloud gaming are mind-blowing. You can enjoy the classics like GTA 1 and 2 on a PlayStation 1 emulator, or opt for the handier gameboy color versions. For the 3D universe, the mobile versions or emulators offer an immersive experience. The future of PC emulation on Android looks promising, making it a wild ride ahead! 📱🎮 #GTA #EmulationGoals


Smartphone Power and Gaming

As the release of GTA 6 is still a year away, I was curious to know if it’s possible to run all GTA games on an Android mobile without using cloud gaming. This includes the original GTA games for PlayStation 1, as well as the latest PC version released 11 years ago. Today, I will not only show you how to emulate each Grand Theft Auto game, but also how to make them look and run better than on original consoles.

Compatibility and Performance

The good news is, you don’t need a top-of-the-line smartphone to run 80% of the games. Even a budget phone from 2019 onwards is capable of running almost all the games, except for the fourth and fifth editions, which will be quite challenging to emulate. Depending on the game you want to run, you’ll need different applications. The early GTA games, with their top-down view, such as GTA 1 and 2, are best emulated using a PlayStation 1 emulator, like ePSXe or FPse. For Gameboy Color versions, emulators like John GBC and Pizzaboy GBC can be used.

Enhancing the Experience with Emulators

The original GTA Advanced for Gameboy Advance, and China Town Wars for the DS, add extra features such as fast saves, removing boring dialogues, and tools to enhance the gaming experience. GTA Advanced, my favorite 2D classic, includes additional content like 2D cinematics, new police missions, and weapons. On the other hand, GTA China Town improves immersion in the game with the use of the second screen for mini-games in the original DS version.

Exploring the 3D Universe

The standard 3D GTA series, from GTA 3 to San Andreas, introduces a strong narrative featuring 3D gameplay that has established the series as one of the best in the gaming world. Each game brings unique elements, superior vehicles, and compelling stories.

Mobile Versions and Enhanced Gameplay

Although the mobile versions have faced criticism for cutting content and worse graphics, they offer improved gameplay experience and new features like aiming mode selection and enhanced camera control.

Emulating Modern Titles

The latest GTA titles, part of the HD series, originally released for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, present a greater challenge as emulators for these consoles are not yet available for Android devices. However, with technological advancements, it is now possible to emulate a PC and run GTA 4 and subsequent series on mobile devices. This is a complex process and requires powerful hardware, such as devices with 8 GB of RAM or higher and a Snapdragon 865 processor.


Key Takeaways
– Emulate early GTAs with PS1 emulators
– Mobile versions offer enhanced gameplay
– Consider emulator compatibility and device specifications

I personally believe this experiment was worthwhile, as we were able to run several GTA games on an Android mobile. Despite some issues with performance and graphics, advancements in the emulation of PC games for Android devices bring hope for better compatibility and improved performance in the future. If you enjoyed this video, do leave a like and share it with your friends. Let me know in the comments which other game series you’d like to see in this series. That’s all for today. I’m [Pel Androide], and until next time.


We’ve covered a lot of ground in understanding how to emulate and run Grand Theft Auto games on Android mobile devices. The compatibility with different emulators and the performance of mobile versions provide options for users to enjoy these iconic games on the go. With continuing technological advancements, it’s only a matter of time before emulating PC games becomes more accessible and seamless on Android devices. Stay tuned for more exciting developments in the world of mobile gaming.
