# GameLoop

Application: Tencent

Also called game loop, tencent gameloop, pubg mobile pc

Tencent, Games

Tencent’s Android emulator used for PUBG Mobile on PC. The process is AndroidEmulator.exe. It is not BlueStacks.

## What you need to know

GameLoop is Tencent’s PUBG Mobile PC emulator. BlueStacks is a generic VM.

AndroidEmulator.exe is GameLoop. HD-Player.exe is BlueStacks. Tencent’s FAQ is the vendor path for PUBG Mobile on Windows.

- **What is it?**: Tencent emulator for PUBG Mobile on PC

  **Same as BlueStacks?**: No. Different vendor and exe

  **Process?**: AndroidEmulator.exe

Feex says

If PUBG Mobile on PC is the job, I would take GameLoop from gameloop.com. I would not start with BlueStacks for that title, and I would not call AndroidEmulator.exe HD-Player.exe.

## What is GameLoop?

GameLoop is Tencent’s Android emulator and storefront. AndroidEmulator.exe runs the VM. PUBG Mobile on PC is the title people mean.

## If you have never used it

If you play PUBG Mobile on a Windows PC the Tencent way, this is GameLoop. Download it from gameloop.com. The engine process is AndroidEmulator.exe. It is not BlueStacks. BlueStacks is a general Android emulator (HD-Player.exe). GameLoop is Tencent’s branded path for PUBG Mobile and other Tencent Android titles. LDPlayer and Nox are third-party VMs, not this storefront.

## What is it used for?

**PUBG Mobile on PC**

Tencent’s documented PC path. BlueStacks can run Android games too, but this page is the GameLoop plus AndroidEmulator.exe stack.

**Tencent Android catalog**

Other mobile titles Tencent lists in GameLoop. That storefront is not LDPlayer’s ad UI.

**Anti-cheat aware VM**

Tencent’s emulator is the one PUBG Mobile’s PC notes point at. A random Nox instance can be the unsupported path.

## Who is it for?

- PUBG Mobile players who want the Tencent PC client
- People whose Task Manager shows AndroidEmulator.exe
- Anyone who installed BlueStacks and wondered why PUBG Mobile complained

## Current status

GameLoop (2019) is a current android emulator from Tencent. The vendor still points Windows users at https://www.gameloop.com/.

## How old is it?

Tencent pushed GameLoop around 2019 as the official-feeling PC home for PUBG Mobile. BlueStacks already existed for years as a generic emulator. A 2015 “just use BlueStacks for PUBG Mobile” guide is a different vendor and can fight Tencent’s anti-cheat expectations.

## Versions

Major channels first. Exact build numbers are not all verified here.

## System requirements

Values follow the publisher's public guidance. Workload still changes the real need.

### Minimum

| Operating system | A current supported Windows 10 or Windows 11 release, per GameLoop’s FAQ                        |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| RAM              | Tencent’s FAQ asks for several GB free. 8 GB class PCs are the usual comfort zone they describe |

## Resource profile

- **CPU demand**: The Android VM plus PUBG Mobile

  **GPU demand**: 3D mobile game in a desktop window

  **Network demand**: Live matches

## Installed processes

These executables belong to this product when it is installed.

| ------------------- | ----------------------- |

## Startup components

## Common problems

### Wrong emulator for PUBG Mobile

Tencent’s FAQ talks about GameLoop. A BlueStacks instance can fail anti-cheat or login.

### AndroidEmulator.exe at idle

The VM can stay up after you close a game. Quit from GameLoop, not by ending a random Android process.

## Getting unstuck

### Install from gameloop.com

Tencent hosts the emulator. A “PUBG Mobile PC crack” is bait.

### Confirm AndroidEmulator.exe, not HD-Player.exe

Wrong emulator, wrong support article.

### Use GameLoop’s FAQ for PUBG Mobile login and crash

Virtualization notes are vendor-specific. Do not paste Nox steps here first.

## Alternatives

Play on a phone. BlueStacks only if the title is a generic Android game and Tencent is not the gate. Steam if you meant PUBG: Battlegrounds, which is a different game.

Start with the vendor. Random exe sites are not a support channel.
