With this launch, mobile games developed on the Cocos, Unity and Unreal engines can be easily modded and shared, reaching over four billion users and 4.5 million creators.

BlueStacks Creator Studio & Creator Hub open up the possibilities of user–generated content to the global mobile gaming community, where they can create and share infinite versions of mobile games. Modding can be done at three levels: basic, intermediate and advanced. Basic modding involves playing with color; for example, you can have dark mode for a game, akin to Instagram filters. Intermediate modding links to in–game events such as effects on screen during kill or win shots. Lastly, with advanced modding, you can change 2D and 3D textures inside the game, including game elements like avatar's clothes.

Powered by now.gg and now.gg's NFG platform, Creator Studio & Creator Hub enable the separation of game code, game events and game art, allowing users to share their modded experiences via a simple link – creating a shareable and immersive mobile experience.

"By 2025, the majority of mobile gamers will play modded games," said Rosen Sharma, CEO and founder of BlueStacks and now.gg. "Imagine searching for a game and finding modded versions from your favorite gamers, streamers and fans. Making mobile game modding globally accessible opens up endless possibilities for gamers and creators, changing how we build, share, and experience mobile gaming forever."

"User generated content "" like modded games "" are an important form of self–expression. In the same way we change our clothes to suit our moods, people will soon demand to play only games with mods to match their mood, desired experience, and preferences," said Huabin Lin, Technology Director at Cocos. "BlueStacks mobile game modding is paving the way for mods to be the default way of mobile gaming in the future."

"Popular PC games can have tens of thousands of mods created for them. However, modding was not possible for mobile games until now," said Aevatrex (Jonathan Fermin), leading mobile gaming streamer. "With BlueStacks mobile game modding, there are endless possibilities. One of my favorite mods is where a dancing Mr. Bean shows up at the victory event in the Lords Mobile game."

BlueStacks mobile game modding is available now for free here for modding on BlueStacks X app player and here for modding on the cloud.

BlueStacks launches BlueStacks X, the world’s first cloud gaming service for mobile games http://www.businesstimesoman.com/bluestacks-launches-bluestacks-x-the-worlds-first-cloud-gaming-service-for-mobile-games/ http://www.businesstimesoman.com/bluestacks-launches-bluestacks-x-the-worlds-first-cloud-gaming-service-for-mobile-games/#respond Thu, 30 Sep 2021 13:21:51 +0000 http://www.businesstimesoman.com/?p=306736 PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept. 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BlueStacks Inc., a pioneer of Android gaming on PC and the world's leading mobile gaming platform, today announced the release of BlueStacks X (beta), the world's first cloud–based game streaming service for mobile games. BlueStacks X is available on Windows 10 and 11, Mac, iOS, Android, Chromebook and Raspberry Pi. It is the only cloud gaming service on the market that offers free game streaming for mobile games across platforms and devices.

BlueStacks X (beta) is powered by hybrid cloud technology, built in partnership with now.gg, BlueStacks' sister company. Hybrid cloud enables the cloud to offload parts of compute and graphics rendering to the endpoints, dramatically reducing the cloud costs and enabling users to enjoy a free service. This can be achieved both with using a native client and browsers capable of native graphics rendering. This technology works transparently and does not require any integration from game developers.

"BlueStacks App Player recently crossed 1 Billion lifetime downloads. BlueStacks X is a natural next step for us. Hybrid cloud is a big technological breakthrough which makes it economically viable to launch the service," said Rosen Sharma, CEO, BlueStacks Inc. "We are a trusted partner to top mobile game developers. There is a lot of excitement among them about BlueStacks X and some of the other innovations we have like deep Discord integration."

"These days all gamers practically live on Discord. Launching BlueStacks X as a Discord bot is so innovative and smart. We can literally just click a link and jump into a game. I can customize the service for my server, way cool," said Aevatrex (Jonathan Fermin), leading mobile gaming influencer.

BlueStacks X can be accessed via the mobile browser on iOS, Android, Windows 11, Mac, Chromebooks and even some smart TVs. The BlueStacks X native client is available on Windows 11, Windows 10 and older versions of Windows. BlueStacks X can also be used by BlueStacks App Player users.

BlueStacks X (beta) already has over 200 games, and several new games are being added every week. The service has a great collection of RPG and Strategy games with other genres being added over time.
