Samsung Play Galaxy Link will allow you to play PC games on your mobile
Playing pokies or games on mobile is now a trend. All the online casinos, lottery sites or gaming websites have optimized their games for mobile play. Seeing the popularity of mobile gaming, various telecom and smartphone manufactures started introducing their game apps and online gaming services. Big brands like Apple introduced the Apple Arcade online gaming service in 2019 with the unlimited gaming subscription. Samsung is not far behind and it unveiled its new PlayGalaxy Link platform, which makes it possible to play online games via your Galaxy smartphone or tablet.
Samsung filed a trademark in America with the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office) for the name PlayGalaxy link. The trademark was published on 26 April 2019 in the trademark database of the EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Property Office).
The trademark is categorized as Class 9 and 41 and has an extensive description; smartphones; downloadable game software, service for online game tournaments, service for playing online Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality games service accessible for mobile devices.
Later in August 2019 it was announced that Samsung had found a partner in the Finnish company Hatch, a subsidiary of Rovio Entertainment, the makers of Angry Birds. Together they have launched a new 5G cloud gaming service in Korea. Also those who buy the Galaxy S10 5G will receive a free three-month Hatch Premium as a gift.
The Korean manufacturer also release a gaming smartphone which it had been talked about for some time that Samsung is developing a Galaxy device that is focused on gaming, which will probably be accommodated within the Galaxy A series like the Samsung Galaxy A90 as it is already mentioned at the bottom of the webpage for compatible devices for the new game Asphalt 9: Legends.
Unlike Microsoft’s Project xCloud and Google Stadia, Samsung PlayGalaxy Link is not a cloud game streaming service. Instead, it will allow Samsung smartphone owners to stream their PC games while on the go. Imagine you are playing a game on your PC, you can pick up where you left off and continue the game on Samsung smartphone with no need for local storage. The Samsung’s P2P gaming service, PlayGalaxy Link, enables streaming of games.
PlayGalaxy Link will go hand-in-hand with the Galaxy Note 10‘s Game Booster feature, which leverages AI to optimize performance and power consumption depending on the game. Overall, PlayGalaxy Link sounds similar to Valve’s Steam Link, another PC-to-mobile game streaming service which is available on both Android and iOS.
