If you want to play mobile games on your computer, you usually use Android emulators, such as: Xiaoyao, Thunder, BLUESTACKS, MUMU, Yeshen, etc., or Microsoft 's Android subsystem. In fact, Google officially launched Android mobile game PC version "Google Play Games For PC" , but it is still a beta version, and only some regions can download it.
According to the official introduction, you only need to log in to your Google account once to synchronize the game progress and game library between different devices. Start the game on your phone, switch to your PC and continue on your phone.
Google Mobile Game PC version experience
Install Google Mobile Game PC version requires Win10 system or above, CPU requires 4 core, memory requirements 8G, graphics card core graphics can also support, only solid-state drive , and also need to enable virtualization function. In addition, it is reported that Google mobile game PC is based on CROSVM virtual machines.
downloaded installer is only 1.36M, and you need to download and install the program online throughout the entire process. You need to log in to your Google mobile game PC version to enter the Google account.
has currently been listed in the Google mobile game PC library, including Asphalt, collapse 3, Tiandijie, Ark of Tomorrow, Pocket Shock, etc.
, however, does not support local installation of games, nor does it support running other APK applications. Since it is currently a beta version, I donβt know if the subsequent official version of Google will run local installation.
Some mobile games will prompt that this PC may not be able to run normally. It may be due to regional restrictions or hardware problems, such as core graphics? Some games also need to be redirected to the Play Store to download a separate client.
After entering the game, the game will be in full screen mode by default. Press Shift + Tab to open the system settings, and you can set the full screen mode, input language, and keys (control items).
However, the current control item (key bit) does not support custom settings, and can only use the default preset solution, nor does it support the handle, and can only be supported through mapping software.
Other functions support viewing your game achievements, modifying personal information, automatically updating games, activity records, managing game accounts and data, etc.
summary
Currently, the experience of Google mobile games PC is not as good as that of Android emulators. For example, it does not support local installation of games. The only advantage is that all games that have been put on the shelves have been tested for through Google compatibility. The experience and stability will be better, and the hardware requirements are relatively low. Of course, there is another major problem in the end, which I believe everyone understands.
summary is that the PC version of Google mobile game is still in the trial stage, depending on the attempt to occupy the game share on the PC side, so will more developers launch PC/mobile cross-platform games in the future?
