Unleashed Recompiled for Android: Sonic Unleashed port
This is an Android port of Unleashed Recompiled for the Xbox 360 version of Sonic Unleashed. It runs the statically recompiled game on ARM64 Android 10 or newer, with touch controls, gamepad support, a mod manager, and a bundled Turnip Vulkan driver. The launcher installs a zip or folder, or separate base-game, title-update, and DLC packages. The main tested GPUs are Adreno 710, 725, 732, and 750. Adreno 830 is selected automatically. Recent Mali GPUs with Vulkan 1.3 are experimental. A Windows host with Visual Studio 2022, CMake, Ninja, Android NDK r29, JDK 17, and vcpkg builds the port.
