Andstation 3
Andstation 3 is a free PS3 emulator available for Android devices, like smartphones and tablets.
Emulating PS3 hardware is challenging, especially on modern PCs, and as a result, doing this on Android devices is even more demanding. Compatibility and performance are noticeably low compared to the original software, which is expected from an emulator in its early stage.
Andstation is not a fork of RPCS3, but it uses a versatile FEX translation layer. This allows it to execute PC software on Android, transforming it into a powerful Android PC emulator focused on loading the original RPCS3 code.
Currently Andstation is in its alpha state, and its development seems to have stopped in December 2024, so it is not recommended for any daily gaming session but only for developers and other technical use.
While Andstation is not the most innovative or original PS3 emulator out there, for the time being, it is the only project trying to emulate PS3 games on Android.
