LG smart TVs get Xbox app in beta for gaming without console: Details here

LG Electronics has announced the arrival of the Xbox app on a select range of its smart televisions. This move followed South Korean electronics maker's partnership with Xbox in January this year. With the app, users can access Microsoft's Xbox game library and play eligible games without requiring a console. The Xbox app will be available through the LG Gaming Portal and LG Apps on LG TVs and select smart monitors running webOS 24 and newer versions. It will also soon be available on StanbyME screens, confirmed the company. To play eligible games, a subscription to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is required. 'Conveniently accessible from the Gaming Portal and the LG Apps, the Xbox app enables LG TV owners to jump straight into gameplay from day one with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, launching hundreds of titles from Activision, Bethesda, Blizzard, Mojang, Xbox Game Studios and more – with just a compatible controller,' LG Electronics said in a press note. ALSO READ: The Xbox cloud gaming service is currently not available in India. According to LG, the Xbox app is available in over 25 countries – including Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK and USA. The Xbox app in beta is available on 2022 LG OLED TVs and 2023 OLED, QNED, NanoCell and UHD TVs – provided they have been updated to software version 23.20.01 or higher. Highlighting the benefits of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, LG Electronics said that the membership enables users to explore a dynamic line-up of games, from action-packed titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 to popular games like Avowed, South of Midnight, and upcoming releases like Towerborne. With Game Pass Ultimate, users can also stream a select catalogue of games they already own. In related news, Microsoft recently introduced a series of updates to the Xbox platform, aimed at improving the gaming experience across mobile devices, consoles and other streaming platforms. Among the notable improvements is the upcoming ability to purchase games, Game Pass subscriptions and add-on content directly through the Xbox app on Android and iOS. Another significant update involves Xbox Remote Play, which is being expanded to additional platforms. Gamers will soon be able to stream their console games through web browsers on mobile devices, as well as on Samsung and Amazon Fire TV devices. With Xbox app arrival on its smart TVs, LG Electronics joins the list.

LG Electronics (LG) has unveiled its latest innovation for gamers in the Middle East: The LG UltraGear 32G810SA, a state-of-the-art gaming monitor designed to redefine immersive gameplay and productivity. With its sleek design, advanced technology, and exceptional performance, this all-in-one monitor is tailored to meet the demands of gamers in a region where high-quality visuals and seamless experiences are integral to entertainment. At the heart of the UltraGear 32G810SA is its stunning 31.5-inch 4K UHD IPS display, which delivers ultra-clear visuals with remarkable colour accuracy and sharpness. Covering 95% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut and supporting VESA DisplayHDR 400, it produces vibrant, true-to-life images that bring games to life. Whether exploring vast open-world landscapes or engaging in fast-paced battles, the monitor's 144Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time ensure smooth, tear-free visuals without motion blur or ghosting. Additionally, NVIDIA® G-Sync® compatibility and AMD FreeSync Premium work together to eliminate screen tearing and stuttering, creating a flawless gaming experience. This monitor goes beyond traditional gaming setups by introducing webOS 24, making it LG's first gaming monitor to feature this smart platform. Gamers can access cloud-based gaming services directly on the monitor without needing a PC or console, thanks to built-in apps like Cloud Games. Beyond gaming, webOS provides access to popular OTT platforms, YouTube Shorts, and other content, allowing users to effortlessly switch between gaming and entertainment. For those who value personalization, LG's AI Personalized Picture Wizard adjusts image settings based on individual preferences, while AI Picture optimizes key objects and characters for enhanced clarity and realism. Combined with features like Dynamic Tone Mapping and AI Sound, which simulates a 9.1-channel audio setup, the UltraGear 32G810SA offers an immersive audiovisual experience that's perfect for intense gameplay or cinematic viewing. Designed with modern gaming spaces in mind, the UltraGear 32G810SA blends functionality with aesthetics. Its Unity Hexagonal design, featuring an elegant white finish and subtle light purple backlighting, adds a touch of sophistication to any setup. The space-saving L-shaped stand allows users to position the monitor close to the wall, maximizing desk space while maintaining a clean, organized look. Ergonomic adjustments—including tilt, height, swivel, and pivot capabilities—ensure optimal comfort during extended gaming sessions or work hours. The monitor also supports vertical orientation, with webOS 24 seamlessly adapting to display vertical content like short-form videos. A USB Type-C interface simplifies connectivity, enabling charging, data transfer, and display transmission through a single cable—ideal for laptop gamers and professionals seeking streamlined setups. Built for powerful PC or high-end console gaming, this new innovation from LG marks an important addition to gaming setups. The LG UltraGear 32G810SA will be available across major retailers in the Middle East starting May 2025, priced at AED 2,899.
