Certain changes were made out of legal considerations, such as ending support for encrypted games, renaming the .3ds file format to its official file extension, .cci, and removing the ability to download system files directly from Nintendo's CDN, which has been replaced by the Artic Setup Tool: a homebrew application that copies system files from a real 3DS unit to Azahar. Cryptographic keys are now included in the emulator directly.<ref>{{cite web |last= |first=PabloMK7 |date=December 12, 2024 |title=Game Loading on Azahar: What's Changing |url=https://azahar-emu.org/blog/game-loading-changes/ |website=azahar-emu.org |location= |publisher= |access-date=January 25, 2025}}</ref> Azahar also includes new features not present in other Citra forks, such as the ability to download owned games from the Nintendo eShop, an optional "Disable Right Eye Rendering" hack which can improve performance up to 50% when used in 2D, and other quality of life upgrades over Citra.


;Borked3DS: A rebrand and continuation of the Bravely Offline Citra fork. The developers consider it to be an "experimental" or "sandbox" fork that may be unstable at times. It has all of the latest features from PabloMK7's Citra fork, most features from Lime3DS, and some hacks and features from Mandarine. It also has its own unique features, such as feature parity in the Android version, UI improvements for desktop and Android, and support for the Skylanders IR portal on desktop.
