# Valiant Hearts Vita: rehosting the Android game on PS Vita

> Valiant Hearts Vita runs the Android release of Valiant Hearts: The Great War on PS Vita by loading its ARMv7 executable into memory. The loader resolves imports with native functions and patches the program for the Vita environment. Users provide the executable extracted from their own APK and the game's OBB file.
