The limited test of the new product will be available in Hong Kong, South Korea, and Taiwan. The Game Awards event last month saw the announcement of the Google Play Games PC application, which will allow people to play games on Windows PCs, in addition to currently supported platforms like mobile, tablet and ChromeOS. The new PC support will include both laptops and desktops, and players will be able to pick up where they left off when they switch from another device to their computer.
The first markets to gain access to the PC app were previously announced. An exact date had not been given.
After gaining access to the public version of the game, players will be able to try out some of the most popular mobile games, which have already reached hundreds of millions of players worldwide each month. More than 25 games will be available to the people who are in the beta program.
The new PC app lets users browse through the catalog, then download and play games on a larger screen, while also taking advantage of their mouse and keyboard inputs. When gaming on the PC, users will continue to get Play Points when their progress syncs between devices.
The launch of the PC app follows a recent move from Microsoft to bringANDROID apps to Windows 11 which included a partnership with Amazon and its own Amazon Appstore, as demand for cross- platform gaming has heated up. The Play Games for PC app is not being built in partnership with Microsoft, but is built in-house by the company. It is not a game streaming service. The games will be downloaded to the player's computer.
The PC app will provide more access to games for Windows PCs, and as the PC version goes to launch, more details will be published for developers to help them make their games compatible with Windows PCs. The launch of a Windows app for the Play games could reach 2.5 billion monthly active users across platforms.
At 4 PM today, at the same time as this news, a developer website will be launched for those who are interested in participating in the alpha phase of the project, where they can express interest and receive updates as the project progresses.
