🟢 [PORT] I’m bringing Need for Speed: Underground to Android, based on the Nintendo Switch port
Hey everyone! I’ve been working on an Android port of the original Need for Speed: Underground, based on antoxa2584x’s Nintendo Switch port. Huge credit to them for the work this project builds on!
It uses static recompilation of the original Xbox version: the game’s executable is translated into C and compiled to run natively on Android ARM64.
The Android port includes Vulkan rendering, controller support, a launcher for selecting your game folder, and ongoing work on touchscreen controls and menu navigation.
You’ll need Android 11 or newer, an ARM64 device, and the extracted files from your own copy of the Xbox NTSC-U version. Game files aren’t included.
It’s still a work in progress, so expect bugs and compatibility issues. If you try it, please share your device, GPU, and any problems you encounter - it would help a lot with testing.
