How to Play Rules of Survival on PC Complete Guide (Working)

Rules of Survival on PCRules of Survival is the biggest battle royale game to hit the Google Play Store by Netease Games. Along with Knives Out and Survivor Royale, Rules of Survival is a free Android and iOS game that places 120 players on a gigantic island map where only a single player (or team) can survive and win. This is 20 more players than PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, a popular PC game by PUBG Corporation.

Rules of Survival also has a PC login version with a separate guide for that.

Sadly, some Android devices and emulators were unsupported due to outdated hardware or software. However, some recent updates on two Android emulators for PC, Nox App Player 6.0.1.0 and MEmu 3.6.7, has fixed the “Rules of Survival currently doesn’t support emulators” error message.

Bluestacks also has been updated to support the game and includes its own guide for playing RoS with Bluestacks’ Battle Royale XPack mode.

You can now also play Survivor Royale and Knives Out on PC too if you want to try out all three battle royale apps by Netease.

The following is a complete guide on how to download and play Rules of Survival on PC for the best mobile experience on the big screen with MEmu and Nox Android emulators.

How to Install and Play Rules of Survival on PC Guide

Step 1:

To begin you’ll need to download and install the Nox App Player from Bignox.

Download NoxPlayer

OR

You can install the MEmu Android emulator which also works: memuplay.com

In my experience, Nox seems to run slightly better, but this depends on emulator and computer hardware settings.

Very important: If you choose MEmu then you will need to run it in Android 5.1.1 Lollipop.

Step 2:

Sign into the Google Play Store and search for Rules of Survival, then click Install.

Step 3:

Launch the Android app. After it loads and downloads some resource files, it should take you to the main screen.

  1. i installed it from google play using latest version of nox..

    doesn’t work.. it says emulators are not supported..

    some say december patch broke this(?)

    • I just tested this on Nox version 6.0.1.0 and it’s still working fine for me. Try the following method:

      1. Uninstall Nox App Player.
      2. Download the latest version of Nox (6.0.1.1 or later) from the official website.
      3. Install Nox.
      4. Allocate at least 2 CPU cores and 2GB RAM to it. Set your resolution screen to 1280×720 or higher.
      5. Download Rules of Survival.

      If it still doesn’t work, then try MEmu instead.
