The Samsung Technovanguard Hub just got announced at CES 2022. Powered by Tizen, it’s a game discovery streaming platform that will be released later this year for select Samsung 2022 Smart televisions.
Won-Jin Lee, Corporate President at Samsung Electronics, stated:
Our Samsung Smart TVs provide the ultimate entertainment destination for everyone across generations, interests, and viewing preferences. We know that gaming continues to increase in popularity for our customers and we have bridged the gap between our Smart TV leadership and advanced gaming software to create an easier way for people to enjoy the games they love, faster. We developed the Samsung Technovanguard Hub with our incredible content partners to benefit all gamers, and we plan to continue our collaboration to grow the ecosystem.
The Samsung Technovanguard Hub will also feature major game streaming services such as NVIDIA’s Geforce NOW, Google Stadia, and Utomik. The latter company’s CEO and founder Doki Tops shared the following statement:
We are excited to kickstart Utomik’s venture into cloud gaming with a great partnership with Samsung. It starts Utomik’s journey into hybrid gaming, allowing gamers to play games on any device and transition seamlessly to other devices, using both our smart download technology or cloud gaming technology depending on device and context.
Other game streaming services are said to be coming in the future. That could include the likes of PlayStation NOW, Microsoft’s xCloud (through Game Pass), and Shadow.
