Dubai-based startup The Game Company (TGC) has unveiled its AI-powered cloud gaming platform during Dubai AI Week, which is held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and hosted by the Dubai Future Foundation (DFF). This innovative platform aligns with the Dubai Program for Gaming 2033, a national strategy aimed at establishing the emirate as a global leader in gaming and emerging technologies.

The new platform offers more than 1 300 AAA titles directly from the cloud, making high-performance gaming available to users on any device without the need for expensive consoles or lengthy downloads. The platform is built on a custom AI architecture that optimizes GPU usage for superior visual performance, incorporates predictive forward buffering for smooth gameplay, and provides cloud-agnostic integration for a seamless, low-latency experience across devices.
