DamonPS2: The Fastest PS2 Emulator for Android

DamonPS2 is the leading PS2 emulator for Android, offering unparalleled speed and compatibility. Similar in user-friendliness to the popular PPSSPP PSP emulator, DamonPS2 allows you to play a vast library of PS2 games on your Android smartphone. While still in its early stages of development, it already boasts impressive performance on Snapdragon 835/845 devices and above, running over 90% of PS2 games with minimal graphical glitches.

Compatibility:

DamonPS2 achieves remarkable compatibility, running over 90% of the 13965 tested PS2 games (with minor graphical issues in some cases). A significant portion (over 20%) run perfectly.

Free vs. Pro Version:

The free version of DamonPS2 is fully functional, but the Pro version unlocks enhanced features. Purchasing a Pro license within the free app is identical to buying the paid DamonPS2 Pro app elsewhere on Google Play. Key differences between the free and Pro versions include:

• Ad-free experience
• 1080p/720p HD rendering support
• Gamepad hardware support
• Memory card save states
• Multiple save slots
• Cheat code support

The Pro upgrade offers excellent value.

Regular Updates:

New versions are released every 2-3 weeks. While still under development (unlike the more mature PPSSPP), DamonPS2 is constantly improving. For the latest information, visit:

Game ROMs and BIOS:

Due to legal restrictions, DamonPS2 does not provide game ROMs or BIOS images.

Future Goals:

Within a year, the goal is for DamonPS2 to run 90% of PS2 games at near-full framerate (50FPS+) and near-perfect compatibility (minimal graphical errors) on devices with hardware exceeding Snapdragon 660.
