ELO released Vagabond version 1.6.410, which includes a couple notable fixes for Android devices.
According to the patch notes this version adds controller support for PS Remote Play, and Call of Duty Mobile on Android devices. This update was also accompanied by Unleashed v1.1.0 (49), which addresses unspecified bugs, and improves performance.
Given this was one of our biggest criticisms against ELO Vagabond in our recent review, I was excited to test it out. However, the experience was a mixed bag.
While I can confirm PS Remote Play is working on Android, the experience proved glitchy. An expanded version of this can be found in an updated section of the aforementioned review; but the gist is various games had L2, and sometimes even R2, active at all times. This didn’t make games unplayable, but it did result in some frustrating issues.
Given there are countless variables when it comes to Android devices, I did a brief search to see what other players were saying. For better or worse, I could not find any comments on this update.
In addition to new software, ELO gave backers a number of updates via Kickstarter.
We’ve got a few important updates for you:
Lightning Version Progress
We’re still hard at work on the Lightning version of the Vagabond. While we don’t have a final update just yet, rest assured it’s in the works. Stay tuned for more news soon!Case Completion & Stand Refunds
We’re excited to announce that the Vagabond cases are scheduled to be finished around November 7th (give or take). As soon as they’re ready, we’ll ship them out ASAP. However, please keep in mind that the date may shift slightly as production progresses.
On a related note, we’ll also be issuing refunds for the stand at that time.
Finally, those interested can now purchase ELO Vagabond from Amazon. Like ELO direct it’s listed for $149, though they’re currently offering a $15 coupon on Amazon bringing it down to $134.
