Gta San Andreas Aethersx2 60fps 〈2025-2026〉

Now that the game is patched to understand 60 frames per second, we need to tell the emulator to actually output them.

Go to Settings > Graphics and apply the following:

Playing GTA San Andreas at 60FPS on a mobile device is truly a next-gen experience. The responsiveness of the aiming, the smoothness of driving, and the clarity of the upscaled graphics make it superior to the original PS2 release and arguably better than the mobile port released by Rockstar. Gta San Andreas Aethersx2 60fps

With the right AetherSX2 settings and the crucial 60FPS patch, the state of San Andreas is finally yours to rule in buttery smooth motion.

Happy gaming, and remember: All we had to do was follow the damn train, CJ! Now that the game is patched to understand

Let’s look at what you can actually expect on a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (e.g., Samsung S23 Ultra) after these tweaks:

| Location | Stock AetherSX2 (30fps cap) | Patched 60fps Mode | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Cellhouse (Start of Game) | 30fps | 60fps (Locked) | | Los Santos (Grove Street) | 28fps | 52-58fps | | High Speed Chase (Rain) | 22fps | 45-50fps | | Las Venturas Strip (Night) | 25fps | 55-60fps | | Countryside (Forests) | 29fps | 60fps (Locked) | Minor drops to ~48 FPS in heavy foliage + rain

As you can see, a locked 60fps inside the city remains difficult. However, the feeling of driving a lowrider down Grove Street at 55fps is vastly superior to the sluggish vanilla speed.

Tested on Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (16GB RAM):

| Scene | FPS (Native) | FPS (Patched) | GPU Load | |------------------------|--------------|---------------|----------| | Los Santos – Grove St. | 30 | 58–60 | 72% | | Countryside – High speed | 26 | 52–57 | 85% | | San Fierro – Rain | 25 | 48–55 | 90% | | Interior (safehouse) | 30 | 60 | 45% |

Minor drops to ~48 FPS in heavy foliage + rain. No throttle on 8 Gen 2.
