Mike Lucero, Head of Product Management for Gaming at Samsung Electronics, said, “Samsung Gaming Hub offers players more ways to access the titles they love and discover new ones to play from our game streaming partners, no console required. With Antstream Arcade and Blacknut, we’ve made games even easier to jump into. Now all you need to do is pick up your Samsung TV remote to enjoy great games like ‘Pac-Man’ and ‘Who Wants to be a Millionaire?’, or pair your Bluetooth controller to access thousands of world-class games across genres.”

These new services will be available to many smart TVs and smart monitors launched in 2022 and 2023. Samsung Gaming Hub will be showcased at the Summer Game Fest in Los Angeles next week.
