The supported chipsets for this game are listed below; if your device has one of these chipsets, then the game should run without issue. To find out which chipset your device has, please visit the manufacturer website or consult an online resource such as GSMArena.
The devices listed below are those that Feral have tested and verified as running the game without issue, as well as devices that use similar hardware and are expected to run to the same standard.
Please note that this is not a comprehensive list of all "supported" devices. With thousands of Android devices on the market, it is not possible for us to test them all; for more information on this process, see here.
To avoid disappointment, we aim to block devices that are not capable of running a game from purchasing it. If you are able to purchase this game on your device then we expect it to run well in most cases.
However, we are aware of rare instances where users are able to purchase the game on unsupported devices. This can occur when a device is not correctly identified by the Google Play Store, and therefore cannot be blocked from purchasing. If you have purchased the game but are unable to play it, please request a refund via the Google Play Store.
If you have purchased the game but are unable to play it, please request a refund via the Google Play Store.
If you have purchased the game and are able to play but have encountered other issues, please contact support via [MENU FLOW].

Please note: On some Android devices, swiping with three fingers may take a screenshot. You can avoid this by disabling this feature in your device’s settings.
On some Poco devices, an additional gesture for 'Partial Screenshot' must also be disabled in order for the pause menu to be opened.
On the OnePlus 10 Pro, an additional gesture for 'Split Screen Mode' must also be disabled in order for the pause menu to be opened.

It is not possible to return to the Campaign Launcher from in-game due to operating system restrictions that prevent an app relaunch without a user manually closing the app.
Google Play Store listings for Feral games show all devices on which we have confirmed a game will play without issue. This list is determined after extensive testing.
We do not usually have access to new Android devices prior to their commercial launch; this means that a new phone or tablet is unlikely to be officially supported immediately. It should also be noted that a new device may actually be less powerful than an earlier device from the same manufacturer, therefore we cannot guarantee that all later devices will be fully supported.
If you are having any issues, please contact customer support by selecting Help & Support → Support → Contact Support from the Main Menu or Pause Menu.
Emailing support via the in-game menus automatically includes information about your device that can help our support team resolve issues. This information is anonymous and is only used to resolve technical support issues.
