Why this matters: Samsung’s been touting its handset's compatibility with the Vulkan API since the launch of the Galaxy S7, but there have been so few game titles to actually show its prowess. Samsung’s ready to put its money where its mouth is, so to speak, and the first order of business is getting its users to actively experience the Vulkan API’s capabilities so that there’s weight behind all that active marketing.
