Gaming cloud service – what is it?

Cloud gaming is one of the biggest gaming trends today. The advantage of such services is that you do not need a powerful home computer to run any, the most heavy game. Powerful servers stream the game with modern graphics to your device, regardless of its characteristics. This is because the game is located on the company's server, and not on the user's device.

Is it true that soon you won’t have to download and buy any games, but in general, all gaming will be in the cloud?

At least that's what it's all about. The turnover of this market is growing every year, and all global IT companies are trying their hand at games, creating the corresponding services. For example, Google in 2019 introduced the Google Stadia service for gaming in the cloud. Apple has created a subscription gaming platform called Apple Arcade. The global giant Amazon has announced its interest in cloud gaming. The spread of 5G technology will accelerate this trend. So, if you are a true gamer, you will definitely be into cloud gaming.
