They manage to run Cyberpunk 2077 on an Android phone with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 achieving up to 40 FPS on average
Recently we have seen how the boys of GameSir have presented a solution to turn your Mac into a Gaming PC, this will be offered with a solution called GameHub for Mac. But this tool is now available for iOS and Android, which allows the PC game emulation on these devices based on Arm chips. With this utility they have managed to emulate Cyberpunk 2077 on a Red Magic 11 Pro phone with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5.

From ETA Prime have published a test showing Cyberpunk 2077 running on an Android phone. The operation is based on PC emulation layers for these Android devicesnot with cloud operation that would be possible only with a good internet connection. The application is Gamesir GameHub and it runs on a phone with one of the most powerful SoCs for mobile, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5.
Cyberpunk 2077 runs at its minimum native resolution of 720 points using FSR 2.1 in balanced mode. A configuration that gives some brief 20 FPS on averagealthough with peaks of up to 30 FPS. Things change when the frame generationmaking this title playable, which achieves an average of 40 FPS and peaks up to 50 FPS. ETA Prime has also tested the preset mode for the Steam Deck console, with similar results with and without frame generation working.
With Frame Generation, up to 50 peak FPS has been achieved
In the same video, from HardwareUnion They have added a slightly more encouraging comment. They, who are developers of drivers, mods and scripts, say they have achieved better results in these tests, results that exceed 50 FPS on average.
The point is that it seems possible run demanding games like Cyberpunk 2077 on phones with powerful mobile processors. It seems that the compatibility layers continue to advance to be able to bring games to more devices, without developers having to, each individually, adapt their creations for different configurations. We leave you the full video.
