🎉More games, more publishers, more ways to play!
🔗 https://lnkd.in/epxFkAFV
In celebration of #GDC we are releasing our Publisher Update!

In 2024 alone, we added 127 games —more than 10 new games per month—with hits from Ubisoft, Focus Entertainment, Midwest Games, indie.io, Top Hat Studios, Inc., Jackbox Games, and more.

We saw publishers launch games on #Blacknut simultaneously with their global release, including Konami Digital Entertainment’s SUPER CRAZY RHYTHM CASTLE and the Cygni: All Gunz Blazing. Cloud gaming is no longer just an option—it’s becoming a key platform for new releases.

📺 Where are players gaming? #SmartTVs are leading the way, making up 55% of our usage! With existing partners like Amazon, Google, Samsung Electronics, and LG Electronics, plus new collaborations with Hisense Group VIDAA & Titan OS, we’re unlocking huge opportunities for publishers to reach gamers directly on their screens.

💡 What’s next? We’re expanding #Blacknut passes, working with publishers on new revenue models, and continuing to grow our 800+ game catalog across 65+ countries.

🎮 Excited to talk more? Meet us at #GDC 2025 as we shape the next generation of cloud gaming!

👉🏻Overall, the demand for cloud gaming is increasing with #Blacknut leading the charge!
We proudly hold the largest number of #telecommunication #partnerships, an ever growing community now including Vivo (Telefônica Brasil) and Ooredoo Group, leading to exciting new opportunities in #LATAM, #MENA, and beyond 🎉
With our quality proven, fastest-to-market flexible deployment options (Blacknut Brand, #SDKs, and White Labels) we have no doubt about the upcoming growth of the platform.

From insightful discussions at the Business France pavilion 🇫🇷🇪🇸 about our #cloudgamingplatform (including our work with iconic French publisher Ubisoft) and the honor of meeting with the French Ambassador to Spain Madame Kareen Rispal, this year’s edition of #MWC was truly one for the books.

A special shoutout to #KingBru for an inspiring exchange on the future of cloud gaming, a #blacknut demo, and a huge thank you to all our partners who joined us in shaping the next chapter of gaming!

Thank you to everyone who made this event a success—see you next year! And for our Next event the delegation is already preparing for #GDC! 💡🔥
