Utomik on LG’s App Store
Earlier this year, Utomik revealed their mission to make games more accessible to a broader audience and give everyone a taste of gaming. In order to achieve this, Utomik is bringing their cloud gaming service to smart TVs.

Starting this November, the Utomik Cloud app will be available on LG smart TV models that run webOS from 2021 and 2022. LG will update their gaming UI with the addition of the Gaming Shelf, which is located on the new Home Screen of LG TVs.

“We are proud to announce this partnership with LG, which is one of the next steps in our mission to make gaming more accessible to an even broader audience. LG has been a great support for this next step to bring gaming everywhere, which proves their commitment to putting the needs of gamers first, and we couldn’t be more grateful for this opportunity,” Doki Tops (CEO and co-founder of Utomik) says.

‍Eindhoven, The Netherlands, April 21 2022 – Utomik, the worldwide gaming subscription platform for everyone, is proud to announce a partnership with renowned publisher Wired Productions! This includes bringing all 6 of their 2022 games to the Utomik library with titles like Martha is Dead, Arcade Paradise and today’s newly released Lumote: The Mastermote Chronicles.

Wired Productions and Utomik have intensified their relationship by setting up an official partnership, bringing their 2022 portfolio to the platform of Utomik - many even at release. Starting with the release of Wired Productions’ newest title Lumote: The Mastermote Chronicles! This means that those with a Utomik subscription can play Lumote right now. 

‍

Lumote is a puzzle platform game in which you play as Lumote, a small bioluminescent creature on a journey through the Great Depths. The puzzles Lumote has to solve, as well as the rest of the environment, are visible at all times, and clever level design introduces players to the game before ramping up the difficulty and creating an adventure worth experiencing.

Check out the Lumote release trailer.

‍

Players can expect Arcade Paradise, Tin Hearts, The Last Worker and Tiny Troopers: Global Ops to come to Utomik in the upcoming months. And of course we can’t forget the great games that have already been published by Wired Productions and have yet to appear on the Utomik app: Martha is Dead will soon be appearing on Utomik as well.

Wired Productions partnership

The aforementioned games aren’t the first Wired Productions titles you can play through the Utomik platform: The Falconeer, Deliver Us The Moon, and GRIP: Combat Racing are just some of the titles that are already playable for people with a Utomik subscription. With this strengthened partnership, the amount of Wired Productions games on the Utomik platform will only continue to grow.

As stated by Neil Broadhead, Head of Marketing from Wired Productions, “With its platform and newly announced Cloud Gaming service, Utomik helps us reach a larger, more diverse audience than ever before.  This, in combination with the effortless onboarding, made it a no-brainer to engage in a closer partnership with Utomik.”

Tom Schoen, Content Director at Utomik shares this enthusiasm: “Wired Productions’ catalog consists of many great indie games, and here at Utomik we are always searching for such titles to add to our platform.

Eindhoven, The Netherlands, March 31 2022 – Utomik, the worldwide gaming subscription platform for everyone, announces the upcoming release of their cloud gaming apps for Android mobile and—as revealed in January—the Samsung Gaming Hub on Samsung TVs.

Since 2014 Utomik strives for accessibility with their gaming platform—counting over 1300+ curated games for all types of gamers to play right away, from the classics to indie games. Utomik has something for everyone in their ever-growing catalog! Their announcement of the Utomik cloud gaming solution therefore comes as no surprise, as it will make their games accessible on even more platforms.

On PC, the gaming subscription platform delivers a great user experience through its fast-download tech. Now with Utomik’s cloud gaming you can play on your Android mobile and tablet devices (720p) or on select Samsung Smart TVs (1080p). On top of all this, users can switch between devices and continue playing on their device of choice.

Thanks to strong foundations and the recent expansion to cloud gaming, Utomik holds a unique position in the market, being in the ultimate sweet spot in two ways: the utility provided by its cloud service and content in the form of games, and a multi-faceted business proposal as it has a presence in both the B2C and B2B markets.

Utomik: play anything, anywhere, anytime

Utomik officially reveals its ambitious plans to offer cloud gaming to users of the service starting mid-2022. The launch of the new Android app will bring this to Android mobile and tablet devices. The Android 9 app offers a subset of games that are suitable to play on mobile devices. In those areas of the world where 4G/5G, WiFi, or internet at home can deliver a reliable and enjoyable gaming experience, Utomik strives to make its cloud gaming service a reality. 

CTO Mark Schroders is enthusiastic about this development: “The launch of the new Android app is an important milestone for Utomik. We wanted to build the app and the backend that we need to deliver a solid user experience, making games even more accessible. By using a novel blend of cloud gaming and file streaming technology we strive to provide an effortless gaming experience!”

Soon, Utomik will start a closed beta for a select group of users. Players in the beta can expect:

• Over 75 curated games, including titles such as Bridge Constructor: The Walking Dead, Call of the Sea, Demon Hunter 2: New Chapter, Coffee Talk, and Kingdom: New Lands 
• Support on Mobile and Tablet devices with Android 9 and higher
• Closed beta availability will start in the United Kingdom and Benelux, and shortly after in North America and other regions, with the ambition to make the service available globally
• Sharing feedback with the Utomik developers to improve the functionality and performance of the app

It is Utomik’s goal to offer a great gaming experience in the cloud, allowing people to play whatever they want, whenever they want, wherever they want, and on the device they want. 

CEO Doki Tops says: ”The addition of cloud gaming is very exciting and brings great opportunities for Utomik on the B2C and B2B markets: players can now game anywhere they like! And with partners such as Samsung, which sells around 50 million units a year that Utomik can transform into gaming devices, we can soon deliver games to more people around the world, whether they call themselves gamers or not, opening new markets.”
