According to Neowin , the popular Nintendo Switch emulator Yuzu has expanded its support to a new platform. After years of operating on Windows and Linux, Yuzu has now officially arrived on Android.
However, there are some notable hardware requirements for this release. Currently, Yuzu only supports devices running on Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets with Adreno GPUs. Additionally, users are advised to install Yuzu on devices with ample RAM (8GB or more). For example, Tears of the Kingdom currently requires 12GB of RAM to run on Android devices.

Currently, the Android version of Yuzu still lacks some features such as LAN/LDN multiplayer, input configuration, and TAS scripts. The development team stated that their current focus is on improving compatibility and performance, as well as addressing the emulation challenges posed by Android hardware.
Developers found that the Adreno 600 GPU running the Mesa Turnip driver showed the best compatibility for the game, although not the best performance.

Yuzu gained attention in January 2018, less than a year after the Nintendo Switch launched. The developers of this open-source project also developed the Nintendo 3DS emulator Citra.
Yuzu is currently available through the Google Play Store in two versions: a free version and a paid version ($4.99). The GitHub page contains standalone downloads of the Android version, which is not yet online, but the developer plans to release it to the public soon.
