| Component | Minimum Requirement | Recommended | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | OS | Android 5.0 (Lollipop) | Android 10+ | | RAM | 1.5 GB | 3 GB+ | | Storage | 1 GB free (for extraction + install) | 2 GB free | | GPU | Mali-T720 or better | Mali-G52, G77, or G610 | | CPU | Quad-core 1.3 GHz | Octa-core 1.8 GHz+ |
Note: Even if you have a low-end Unisoc chip with Mali, this compressed version will run better than the Play Store version. gta vice city highly compressed for android mali gpu

What exactly are you getting with this specific modded version?
Rockstar Games (now owned by Take-Two Interactive) officially sells GTA: Vice City for $4.99 on the Play Store. The "Highly Compressed Mali version" is a cracked/modified paid APK. While distributors of this file may face legal action, if you already own the game on another platform (Steam, PS2, or iOS), many modders consider this a "backup" to run on incompatible hardware.
To stay morally safe: Buy the official version on the Play Store (even if it runs poorly), then download the Mali fix. You are paying for the license, not the file.
