This emulator now allows you to play PlayStation 3 emulator games on Android devices using Bluetooth controllers
Much progress has been made this year in Android emulation. Along with the creation of PC (Windows) game emulators and the reappearance of Nintendo Switch emulators, the eagerly anticipated PlayStation 3 emulator has also been released.
That is correct; the first (working) PS3 emulator for Android, RPCS3, was released only a few weeks ago. Its outstanding performance has won over a lot of emulation enthusiasts.
Nevertheless, the initial beta versions were limited to controllers that were connected using a USB-C cable. However, its most recent update has just added support for Bluetooth controllers.
The Alpha 6 version of the PlayStation 3 emulator for Android was recently released by the RPCS3 developers. Bluetooth controllers are now supported with this update. This implies that any controller that connects wirelessly via Bluetooth, such as an Xbox, PlayStation, or another brand, can now be used to play.
You can get the latest version of the RPCS3 emulator on GitHub. The RPCS3 alpha-6 APK file can be downloaded from its official repository using the link below.
Do not be concerned; connecting a Bluetooth controller to the RPCS3 emulator is simple. All you need to do is take these actions:
First, make sure your Android device is turned on for Bluetooth.
At this point, connect your phone to the Bluetooth controller. Go to your Android device's Bluetooth settings and look for a new device to accomplish this. Press the appropriate buttons on the remote to turn it on via Bluetooth (the button combinations differ depending on the brand; we suggest looking it up online).
Lastly, open the emulator and start the desired game after pairing your Android device with the Bluetooth controller. You do not have to do anything else because the emulator will detect the Bluetooth-connected controller on its own and allow you to play.
