(Estimated Read Time: 3 Minutes)

There is no end to knockoffs on the web, but is Garry's Mod Mobile among the products to avoid? Today, we answer that question and more, including some possibilities for what the future may have in store.

Is There an Official Garry's Mod Mobile?

Sadly, no official Garry's Mod mobile versions exist as of 2024.

Mobile Alternatives

With no official options for mobile, fans are unfortunately left with very few choices, none of which we can recommend. However, for those who would like to learn of them anyway, we have listed each below.

• Garry's Mod on an Android device using third-party services: While we can not speak for the quality or legality, it exists as an option.
• Knockoffs: None of them are Garry's Mod, but it's something, right?
• Steam Deck: The Steam Deck is a handheld device produced by Valve that can play many PC games offered on Steam. Garry's Mod is not supported by the Steam Deck. However, it will, at the very least, run. From there one's experiences will vary depending on their setup and the servers joined.

Why Is Garry's Mod Not Supported by Steam Deck?

A reason has not been publicly shared, but fans have guessed it is due to GMOD servers and game modes having such vastly different controls and requirements. This makes Garry's Mod a much more complicated game to officially support despite it still being a source game.

We do not know what the future holds, but currently, an official Garry's Mod mobile does not appear to be in production. Hopefully, this statement will someday proven wrong, but until then, PC remains the best place to enjoy GMOD's many game modes.

A Guide's End

As years go by, Garry's Mod continues to thrive, even if only on PC. However, with the popularity of the source engine once again exploding due to online web series, perhaps our dream of Garry's Mod mobile will one day come to be. Until Next Time, BisectHosting =)
