Logitech and Tencent to launch handheld cloud gaming console

Logitech G (Logitech's gaming brand) and Tencent Games have announced a partnership: together they are going to launch a portable

console for cloud gaming. The launch of the device should happen very soon, but details about it are not disclosed.

From the announcement, you can find out the following:

  • Logitech provides its experience in hardware, and Tencent Games in software services.
  • The device supports various cloud platforms, including Xbox Cloug Gaming and GeForce NOW. The parties cooperate with Microsoft and NVIDIA.
  • The release of the device is scheduled for 2022.
  • No characteristics, no appearance, even the name has not yet been disclosed.

Judging by the focus on cloud gaming, the console is unlikely to be equipped with powerful hardware - there is no question of an analogue of Steam Deck. On the other hand, weak iron is usually accompanied by a low price.

Now a portable device for the cloudgaming can be any smartphone - just connect a controller to it. Therefore, why Logitech and Tencent decided to create their own device and what will be its uniqueness is a separate question.
