Tencent Gaming Buddy - an Android emulator from Tencent, which is designed to run mobile games on a Windows PC. Initially it supported only PUBG Mobile, but later the authors expanded the list of available mobile projects, renamed the program to GameLoop and added a number of features that are difficult to do without for modern gamers. At the moment, the program offers a large store of games, including PUBG Mobile, Call of Duty: Mobile and Free Fire, optimized to run even on modest computers and laptops.
After installing the program, some games ask you to log in with a Google or Facebook account, and the client itself offers its own login. You can quickly change accounts and game profiles in the Me section. Download and install applications in the Store section, where you will find hundreds of known titles grouped by genre, from action to casual games. Along with the first game, the client also downloads its own Android engine, and all download tasks can be paused and managed in one list.
Installed games are automatically added to the Library. To uninstall an application, just use the Uninstall option. Some games also have the option of choosing a server or game version, such as the Global, TW or VN editions of PUBG Mobile, which can be useful for reducing ping. When you start a game, the control menu will appear on the right side of the screen. It allows you to change the key mapping. Next to it is a panel with additional features: screen recording / screenshot creation, full-screen / multi-window mode, device shake and exit the game.
Tencent Gaming Buddy allows users to play optimized mobile games on a PC with keyboard and mouse controls, even on modest computers and laptops.
The Settings section provides a large number of technical options, including the rendering mode, memory allocation, resolution, DPI, anti-aliasing and others. The default settings are chosen for the current system configuration, but you can change them if you want to achieve a more beautiful and high-quality picture in the games, with resolutions up to 2K on powerful graphics cards.
Tencent Gaming Buddy stands out with a good level of optimization of mobile games, since the emulator was built together with the PUBG Mobile team to run the game smoothly with mouse and keyboard. The client also has a Streaming section for watching game broadcasts. The program is free, and the developers keep adding new supported games with 3D graphics and exciting gameplay.
