AetherSX2 Mod is a high-performance PlayStation 2 emulator for Android devices, designed for users who wish to run PS2 game ROMs on mobile hardware. It targets enthusiasts and retro gamers with mid-to-high-end devices, providing extensive graphics, audio, and control customization. The application requires users to supply their own legally obtained game BIOS and ROM files.

Known Edge Cases
