Yes, and iPhone and Mac have the best results: the official nxnative game page (nxnative is a native port tool, not an emulator) lists 60fps on both Mac and iPhone, starting a new game and getting through the prologue into the main story with working saves, music, voices, and movie audio (the page covers the Asian release, which includes Chinese). On Android, Eden only has two gameplay videos, one on a Helio G99 phone. There are no Switch emulator reports for PC, and none were found for Ryubing, Citron NEO, MeloNX, or Kenji-NX as of November 3, 2026.
