Utomik.com celebrates its 5-year anniversary with a $5 subscription plan!

Utomik.com, the pioneer in the gaming subscription model platform, is proud to announce its momentous 5-year anniversary of its live subscription service. As part of this grand celebration, Utomik.com is delighted to offer an exclusive lifelong monthly $5.00 / €5.00 / C$7.00 / £5.00 Personal + Cloud subscription plan*. Additionally, this month also marks the 1-year anniversary since Utomik.com unveiled its groundbreaking cloud gaming technology during Summer Game Fest 2022!

‍

To commemorate this significant milestone, Utomik.com has teamed up with Samsung for this year's Summer Game Fest to celebrate 1 year of cloud gaming. A range of exciting games that are newly available through the Utomik app will be showcased, as well as a selection of iconic titles that are already available in our extensive library. 

‍

"We are beyond excited to celebrate 5 years of Utomik.com with our incredible community of gamers," said Doki Tops, CEO of Utomik.com. "This anniversary is a testament to the dedication and passion we have for delivering exceptional gaming experiences. We want to express our deepest gratitude to our loyal users and invite everyone to join us in this special celebration.”

‍

The past, the present and the future of Utomik.com

The Utomik app left beta 5 years ago with a diverse catalog of 750 games to be enjoyed on PC. Thanks to Utomik.com’s zero friction game ingestion technology making it effortless for developers to integrate their games into Utomik.com’s collection, this number has grown from 750 to more than 1400 games over the course of 5 years. Additionally, this past year Utomik.com has begun to venture forth into the industry of cloud gaming and is working together with industry leaders such as Samsung and LG, successfully bringing its services to Android and smart TVs. These partnerships also cement Utomik.com’s journey to work with B2B partners to drive value for its partners and gamers around the world.

‍

In the meantime, Utomik.com is ramping up the amount of Day One games that are available on its platform, giving users the possibility to enjoy these games the very moment they are released! Popular games such as The Last Worker, Tin Hearts, and Elypse are only the beginning of this trend and can already be played on PC, Mobile, or smart TV through the Utomik app. And with the upcoming title Born of Bread, a colorful 2.5D adventure that focuses on the story of a sentient piece of bread, it is clear that Utomik.com does not plan on slowing down anytime soon. 

‍

With such an expansive past, it is no surprise that the future of Utomik.com holds just as much potential: the journey into cloud gaming has only just begun! Upcoming plans include adding more B2B partners and platforms to Utomik Cloud to make gaming possible anywhere, anytime. Further localization, enhanced social features, and improved family and children support are also part of Utomik.com’s roadmap. And as cloud gaming becomes more affordable, Utomik.com will experiment with different ways to deliver a great gaming experience for its users.

We’re very proud to announce a new partnership with one of the leading independent, award-winning video game developers and publishers in the area of powerful and immersive narrative experiences: DON’T NOD!

Our partnership journey with DON’T NOD will start with the release of Twin Mirror, a thrilling narrative experience through the eyes of a former investigative journalist that goes back to his hometown and its troubled past. Twin Mirror will be released on Utomik.com June 8th. 

With this partnership, DON’T NOD can reach even more users, via Android devices and Samsung or LG smart TVs. Stay tuned for more of these partnerships in the future.

In the past few months, we’ve worked with many amazing partners like Samsung and Tate Multimedia to bring our large, diverse selection of video games to as many people as possible. Today, we’d like to present some technology we’ve been working on: CloudCaster! 

With this technology, we’ve encoded the games in such a way that we can offer our users a smooth and responsive gaming experience. Through this, users enjoy enhanced quality and performance. And with our new smart algorithms, the gaming stream will be adjusted dynamically to the user’s connection to ensure optimal video quality and minimal buffering. 

Additionally, we’ve also managed to minimize the input latency. User inputs now have near-instantaneous response times, so our subscribers enjoy an even more engaging and captivating gaming experience. It is important to note that the stream's quality and latency depend on various factors, for instance, the user's location and internet connection.

What does this mean for our partners? To begin with, the performance of games such as Metro 2033 Redux and Spiritfarer®: Farewell Edition will be improved. More importantly, however, we are now able to release amazing games that were once unable to join Utomik Cloud, like:

• Call of the Sea
• Kao the Kangaroo
• GRIP Combat Racing 

Partners like LG will benefit from our new tech by being able to offer more — and better performing — games to their customers, while Atari and other content partners will see even more of their games on a variety of platforms. 

And, of course, we’re always looking for more great games to offer on the platform that our subscribers desire — whether that’s PC, Android, or smart TV. Do you want to see your games on any of these platforms through our service? Check out the possibilities for our potential partners: https://www.utomik.com/partners.

Starting tomorrow, a 30-day free personal Utomik Cloud subscription voucher card will be offered in many packs on the LootBoy app!

This partnership represents a strategic move for Utomik.com to increase brand awareness, grow its user base, and generate more revenue through subscriptions. For LootBoy, this partnership provides the opportunity to offer its users an entry to the amazing world of cloud gaming.
