As someone who loves being able to play their PS2 games comfortably on Android, the terms DamonPS2 and AetherSX2 should mean something to you. The developer of the latter has now announced that they will be discontinuing future development.
DamonPS2 is the older closed-source app that allowed emulation fans to play PS2 games on Android. However, since the company behind it has a shady past, the entry of AetherSX2 was mainly interesting for those who wanted to play their PS2 games on Android without supporting DamonPS2.
The reasons for the decision
Now the developer of the AetherSX2 app said that development of the emulator "is suspended indefinitely". The reason for this is the ongoing complaints, death threats and extortion. He did not go into any more detail. In addition, he confirms that the current version of the app will continue to work, but there will be no further development by him.
Fans are very sad about this decision and sharply condemn the agitators. Let's hope that the situation will improve soon and everyone can pursue their beloved activity in peace.
