About

Run retro game emulators, game engines and media programs from a single interface designed for gamepads and touchscreens. Each one is loaded as a libretro core, so you pick what you want to play and RetroArch handles video, audio and input.

Beyond the basics it offers multi-pass shaders, real-time rewind, video recording with FFmpeg and run-ahead to cut input latency. It also has a full command-line interface and is easy to integrate into other launchers. It is available on Android through F-Droid and on Linux through Flathub.

Highlights

  • Loads emulators and game engines as libretro cores
  • Real-time rewind and run-ahead for lower input latency
  • Gamepad and touchscreen friendly interface

Who it's for

Good for retro gaming fans who want many emulators in one place with a living-room friendly interface.
