Is PC Games on Mobile the Next Big Thing?

In today's newsletter: Xiaomi announces a new virtualisation software, that allows you to play PC games on your smartphone, we review Blasphemous and Crash Drive 2 - both with excellent scores! And finally, a lot of US news with bans, fines and much more.

🎮 Xiaomi’s WinPlay will let you play Windows Games on an Android tablet

Xiaomi just announced WinPlay, a virtualisation engine that allows you to play Windows games on your Android tablet. The platform lets you play your steam games on your tablet, and this might be a game-changer as so many games will become available on phones through a virtualisation engine like this.

Maybe, if we’re lucky, software like this will help push more PC games to have a ported version, or at least a mobile-friendly version with added touch controls, so we have even more games to enjoy.

Xiaomi reports excellent performance on the platform, as the Director of Mobile Systems states:
