Jan. 20, 2022Android Games on PC Becomes a Reality
The Google Play Games app, which is the way of playing Android games on Windows, is nowavailable as part of a limited beta. This will allow users to enjoy games on a bigger screen with the added control of a keyboard and a mouse. However, there’s no word if Google has added support for a gamepad, or a maybe, a joystick.
The rollout includes popular titles such as Asphalt 9: Legends, Cash Frenzy, Summoners War, State of Survival: The Joker Collaboration, Magic Rush: Heroes, Dragon Mania Legends, Township, Ideal Heroes, War Planet Online MMO Game, Rise of Empires: Ice and Fire, Last Shelter: Survival, and more. We expect more game options to be added as the app becomes publicly available.
