It is possible to install and play Android games with Genymotion SaaS, but there are several caveats to consider.
Google Play Store is not preinstalled
You need to install the Open Gapps package to get Google Play Store. We have made our best to make the installation as simple as possible: you will find all the detailed steps in How to install Google Play Store (and other Google Apps) in Genymotion?
Most games are only available for Android arm64
Make sure to use an arm64 image for your virtual device, instead of x86/x86_64: very few games are available for Android x86, especially modern games.
For best result, we recommend using Android 14, or Android 15 arm64 images.
