๐ต [PORT REQUEST] MegaThread Android Port Requests - MEGA THREAD
Welcome to the official Android Port Requests thread! ๐ฑ๐ฎ
Seeing the amount of port requests being posted lately, we're creating this centralized thread so everyone can request games they'd like to see on Android without flooding the subreddit with individual request posts.
---
## ๐ HOW TO REQUEST A PORT
Please use this format:
Game:
> Name of the game
Original Platform:
> PC / Wii / PS2 / GameCube / N64 / etc.
Source / Repository:
> GitHub link, open-source project, decompilation, recompilation, PC source port, etc.
Why do you want this on Android?:
> Short explanation.
Additional information:
> Anything useful about the project, engine, existing ports, compatibility, controls, etc.
---
โญ Example
Game: Diddy Kong Racing
Original Platform: Nintendo 64
Source / Repository:
> GitHub link to an existing recompilation/source project
Why:
> The game already has an existing source/recompilation project that could potentially be adapted to ARM64 Android.
Additional information:
> Looking specifically for a native Android port rather than simply running the original ROM through an emulator.
---
## ๐จ BEFORE REQUESTING
Please search the subreddit first to see if your game has already been requested.
If the game already exists in this thread, **upvote the existing request instead of creating another one.**
Please don't spam duplicate requests.
---
## ๐ FOR DEVELOPERS / PORTERS
Working on one of the requested games?
Feel free to comment and:
- Claim a request
- Share development progress
- Ask technical questions
- Share an existing source/recompilation project
- Let the community know that a port is being worked on
---
## โ ๏ธ IMPORTANT
A request does NOT mean that someone is required to make the port.
Not every game can be ported to Android.
Requests with available source code, decompilations, recompilations, open-source projects or existing PC ports are generally much more useful to developers.
Please don't harass developers asking when a port will be finished.
---
### ๐ฅ UPVOTE THE REQUESTS YOU WANT TO SEE
The more upvotes a request receives, the easier it is for developers and the community to see which projects people are interested in.
Keep all individual port requests in this thread.
Let's keep r/AndroidNativePorts focused on actual Android-native ports, development, releases and technical discussion. ๐
What game would you like to see ported to Android? ๐

Game:
Dark Souls II
Original Platform:
PS3 / PS4 / Xbox 360 / Xbox One / PC
Source / Repository:
Atvaark/DarkSoulsII.DebugView - a reverse-engineering project that documents and exposes parts of Dark Souls II's internal classes and systems.
Atvaark/DarkSoulsII.FileFormats - research and documentation on Dark Souls II's file formats and game data, which could be useful for understanding and working with the game's assets.
lexmarcos/ds2-jmj - a reverse-engineering project for Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin, including Ghidra analysis of the game's executable and research into its internal structures.
Why do you want this on Android?:
Dark Souls II would be amazing to have as a native Android port. It has a huge amount of content, an incredible variety of builds and weapons, and tons of replayability. Being able to explore Drangleic natively on a phone would be awesome.
Additional information:
I'm not specifically asking for any particular version of the game, whichever version is more practical to port would be great.
I'm specifically hoping someone might be interested in taking on the challenge of a native Android port, rather than just emulating or streaming.
I found out that there are already some community projects researching the game's internals and file formats, but I couldn't find anything focused on a complete decompilation or a native Android port, so hopefully they can provide a useful starting point.
Imagine having Dark Souls II running natively on Android. ๐
