10 excellent Android games to play on your new Samsung Galax…

We’ve rounded up a couple of excellent Android games that are on the more demanding and graphics-intensive side to help you kick off your Note 7 gaming sessions. Several of these will allow you to make full use of the Vulkan API and relish some really sweet and head-turning graphics. You haven’t forgotten that the Note 7 supports Vulkan, right?

Have in mind that we have tens, if not hundreds of excellent games in mind, we’ll only list a few of them here for the sake of brevity. We will certainly miss one or two that deserve to be included here, but we hope you’d forgive us!

Vainglory is as graphically intensive from the get go, but if you tinker within the settings menu and set it to run at native resolution, then you’re in for a hot experience, literally. Apart from looking fabulous, this one brings some really decent MOBA experience overall. Yes, initially we too had our concerns how this intricate genre will work with the limited control scheme of mobile devices, but Vainglory definitely delivered.

As Vainglory supports the Vulkan API, the graphics of the game are truly beautiful and detailed. With the Note 7’s decently-large 5.7-inch display you should have no issues with the game’s interface at all. Additionally, you shouldn’t expect any performance hiccups at all, either. Vainglory looks like the perfect game to boot your mobile MOBA addiction on your spanking new Note 7.

This savage adversary to Asphalt 8 is truly a must-have game for all those Note 7 users that like their games dynamic and their graphics mesmerizing. This free-to-play mobile racer supports Vulkan, so make no mistake – No Limits looks quite unrivaled in terms of graphics. That’s so because of Vulkan, which makes its appearance in this Electronic Arts’ title.

As far as gameplay goes, we are sure you can guess what’s going on – you pick a gas guzzler and race your way to the top of the food chain in the world of illegal street races and evading the law. Yeah, we like that!

The immensely popular tank MMO impressed us with the captivating gameplay, way better than average graphics, and the amount of fun we got out of it. It’s a 7v7 arena game in which you battle with, you guessed it, WWII tanks. Due to the specifics of the gameplay, the control setup is just fine. Sure, you won’t be able to precisely aim at that IS-3’s turret weak spots in a jiffy, but you won’t find the control scheme frustrating either. By default, you control your tank with your left thumb, while your right one takes care of aiming, recon, shooting, and switching between explosive and armor-piercing shells.

WoT Blitz sports an impressive flurry of German, Soviet, British, American, and Japanese tanks and tank destroyers. You get these by spending credits, which you earn by winning matches and shining on the battlefield. You can also spend real money on getting some premium machines like Matilda IV Black Prince and the Pz.Kpfw. IV Schmalturm, but these are in no way making the game a pay-to-win one.

All in all, a great multiplayer game to enjoy on your Note 7!

With some really beautiful graphics and a gameplay that’s way better than the median among the most Android games of the same genre, which by the way is a hack ‘n’ slash RPG — an undisputed favorite of ours!

There’s plenty of content in this noteworthy title – apart from 4 different hero classes to choose from (namely warrior, assassin,mage, and a crusader), the game also has tons of powerful items that will turn your hero from a squeamish do-gooder into an almighty demigod.

If you’re a fan of RPGs, you’d better give one a try on your shiny new Note 7.

EA’s Real Racing 3 is arguably the best all-around racing game for mobile devices at the moment, and with the Note 7 being one of the most spec’d-out Android devices out there, it’s only fitting to play that game on that phone. 

Apart from the gorgeous graphics and friendly controls, the game also comes with a pretty vast and diverse selection of gas guzzlers, which is almost unsurpassed on mobile. NASCAR, exotics, muscle cars, retro beauties, the Hennessey Venom GT record-holder, electric supercars, and hot hatchbacks, this game is the gift that keeps on giving.

Real Racing 3 is sporting the so-called TSM (time-shifted multiplayer), which means that you’re racing against the shadows of players who have raced on the same track before. While some may argue that this doesn’t classify as true multiplayer, it’ good enough for us. You can grab Real Racing 3 on iOS and Android.

Excellent graphics? Check. Captivating premise and plot? Check. Gameplay that sucks you in? Check. Intuitive controls? Check.

Lost Echo is truly an excellent adventure game that you will most certainly beat pretty quick, since you won’t be able to put it away until you’ve finished it. Okay, that might sounds like an overstatement, but it should really tell you something – although you might not be a fan of puzzle or mystery games, you shouldn’t overlook Lost Echo.

Rest assured that it has all the potential to keep you glued to your Note 7 for a while – time well spent is not lost!

Don’t avert your eyes! While it’s true that GTA: SA is already 12 years old and counting, pumping all the graphics settings to the max will definitely push your Snapdragon 820 device to the limits. After all, let’s not forget that while the Android version  of the game has been optimized as best as possible, it’s still a game that was intended for consoles and desktop PC.

Yet, those who point out that a Galaxy Note 7 probably packs more oomph than a Playstation 2, an Xbox 360, or an average PC from 2004-2005 are most certainly correct.

Anyway, you might have already beat the game a couple of times, but there’s nothing wrong of reliving CJ’s story on your new Note 7, too! Also, we’d argue that it remains the best open-world game available on mobile.

It won’t be an overstatement to say that SW: KOTOR is one of the best Star Wars games we’ve ever had the pleasure of playing, and as Star Wars fans, we’ve tried a decent amount. Starting from the captivating story that is both beautifully interconnected with the whole saga and unique…
