How to play GTA 5 on Android smartphones
GTA 5 is one of the most famous Grand Theft Auto games. It hasn’t yet been officially introduced to Android devices. Since its premiere, GTA 5 has been getting increasingly popular. Although it’s been almost 7 years since its release, the GTA community still loves the game for its sublime plot, extensive open world, and constantly evolving online mode.
GTA 5 is currently available on the following platforms and is to be released on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X in 2021:
- PlayStation 3
- Xbox 360
- PlayStation 4
- Xbox One
- Microsoft Windows
The game’s so popular that some players want it on their Android devices. However, Rockstar Games has not yet ported GTA V to Android devices.
Still, GTA 5 can be streamed on Android devices via Steam Link, which emulates the PC screen on Android. However, the GTA5portable.com team highly recommended using your GTA 5 app. It’s safe and straightforward to use, but when you don’t want to download our GTA 5 Mobile app, the steam link solution is for you.
There are specific entry conditions to be met regarding the gameplay on Android devices with the use of the Steam link. It would be best if you had a PC/ laptop compatible with GTA 5, an uninterrupted Internet connection, and a decent mobile phone. Moreover, the device and computer have to use the same LAN. You should also have the game on your Steam library. If you bought the game from another Store, you must add an execution file to Steam.
