GameHub Compatibility List (2026) – Which PC Games Run on GameHub?

The GameHub compatibility list in short: most older single-player PC games and light indie games run well on GameHub, heavy AAA games need a flagship phone, and online games with anti-cheat do not work. GameHub is the free Android app from GameSir that runs Windows games on Android, so your results depend on your chip, your GPU driver and the game's DirectX version. Below you will find reported benchmark results, a status table of popular GameHub games, and a simple way to check any game before you buy it.

How GameHub Decides Which Games Run

A PC game runs on GameHub when its Windows code can be translated for your phone's ARM chip and its graphics can be turned into Vulkan. GameHub stacks several tools to do this, and each layer affects compatibility.

• Wine – a Windows compatibility layer that lets Windows programs run without Windows.
• Box64 (modified) – translates x86/x64 PC code into ARM code your phone understands.
• DXVK – converts DirectX 9, 10 and 11 graphics into Vulkan.
• VKD3D – converts DirectX 12 graphics into Vulkan.
• GPU drivers – bundled drivers such as Turnip for Adreno GPUs.

Every layer costs some performance, so a game that ran fine on an old laptop can still feel heavy on a phone. In community reports, DirectX 12 games tend to be harder to run than older DirectX 9–11 games. GameHub also adds AMD FSR 3 upscaling and frame generation, which helps heavy games reach playable frame rates. For the full technical picture, read our guide on how the GameHub emulator works.

GameHub Benchmark Results (DROIX Testing)

The most quoted GameHub performance numbers come from DROIX testing on a Snapdragon 8 Elite device at 720p with GameHub 5.3.5. They show that big games, even Cyberpunk 2077, can reach around 60 FPS with the right settings.

Popular Games and Their Reported Status

Outside the DROIX tests, the status below is based on community reports and game type, not on our own testing. We give no FPS numbers for these games, because results vary too much between phones.

"Playable" here means the game starts and community users report usable frame rates on strong phones. It does not mean every scene runs smoothly. Game patches, mods and new GameHub versions can change the result, so treat this GameHub Android compatibility list as a starting point.

Game Types That Work Best on GameHub

Older DirectX 9 and DirectX 11 single-player games, plus light indie titles, give the best results on GameHub. They need less power, they skip the heavier DirectX 12 path, and they have no anti-cheat to block them.

Older DX9 and DX11 classics

Skyrim, the Fallout series, Half-Life 2 and Portal 2 are good examples. Their graphics go through DXVK, and they were made for PCs that are weaker than today's flagship phones.

Indie and 2D games

Light indie games such as Hollow Knight need far less power than AAA titles. They are also the best choice if your phone is not a flagship, because low-end chips can usually handle only light or older games.

Single-player games with Steam cloud saves

GameHub supports Steam cloud saves, so offline single-player games are a great fit. You can play a little on your phone and, for games that use Steam Cloud, continue on your PC later.

Games That Do Not Work on GameHub

Online multiplayer games with anti-cheat are the main group that fails on GameHub. Anti-cheat systems expect a real Windows PC, and they generally block games that run under a translation layer like Wine and Box64.

• Competitive online shooters – Valorant, Fortnite, PUBG: Battlegrounds, Call of Duty: Warzone and similar games. Play their official mobile versions where they exist.
• Very new AAA games – they may start but run too slowly on most phones, especially DirectX 12 titles.
• Huge games on small phones – reviewers say AAA games need 30–100 GB of storage each.
• Heavy games on low-end phones – budget chips can usually handle only light or older games.

Which Phones Run GameHub Games Best

Snapdragon phones with Adreno GPUs are the best-supported, and the Snapdragon 8 Elite is the top choice. Reviewers also recommend 8–12 GB of RAM, and the current version 6.3.1 needs Android 10 or newer.

The July 2025 Mali update came after GameSir worked with MediaTek on Mali drivers. Even so, Snapdragon is still the safest choice. On any phone, most black screens and crashes come from a mismatch between the Turnip driver and the DXVK version.

The In-App Compatibility Rating (Revamped in 6.0.6)

GameHub has its own game compatibility rating inside the app, and version 6.0.6 (June 2026) revamped this rating system. It is the fastest way to see whether a game is likely to run before you download it.

Version 6.0.6 was described as "one of the biggest updates". Besides the new rating system, it added EA games support, import of external Steam games and custom install locations. Version 6.3.1 (September 2026) then added an in-app community with setup guides and discussions, launch guidance, and a smarter AI search that understands nicknames and typos. Together, these put the rating and player notes in one place.

How to Check a Game Before You Buy It

Check the in-app rating, the DirectX version, anti-cheat, community reports and storage space before you pay. It takes a few minutes and can save you from buying a game your phone cannot run.

1. Check the in-app rating. Search for the game in GameHub and look at its compatibility rating.
2. Look at the DirectX version. Open the game's store page and read the PC system requirements. DirectX 9–11 is a safer bet than DirectX 12.
3. Look for anti-cheat or online-only play. If the game needs online play with anti-cheat, skip it.
4. Read community reports. Check the in-app community added in 6.3.1 and Android emulation communities such as r/EmulationOnAndroid. Search with your chip name, for example "Snapdragon 8 Gen 2".
5. Check storage and RAM. Big games need 30–100 GB of free space, and 8–12 GB of RAM is recommended.
6. Know the refund rules. Stores like Steam have refund policies for games you played only briefly. Read the current terms before you buy, and test the game soon after.

Also make sure you have the right GameHub build. The Google Play version only supports Steam games because of store policy, while the version from the official GameHub website also supports non-Steam and local games. Our GameHub download page explains both official sources, and the guide to downloading games on GameHub shows how to link Steam and install your first game.

Bottom Line

The GameHub compatibility list favours older, offline, single-player PC games. On a Snapdragon 8 Elite, reported results show even Cyberpunk 2077, GTA V and The Witcher 3 reaching around 50–60 FPS at 720p, while online shooters with anti-cheat do not work at all. Start with a light game, check the in-app rating, then move up to heavier titles. When you are ready, get the latest GameHub APK from an official source and buy your games legally.
