CES 2022: Alienware Nyx concept allows you to play games anywhere in the house

Many of us believe that the future of games is game flow, and we will be able to Directly from the cloud to our mobile phones, computers and TVs. But Dell’s Alienware put forward a slightly different concept of the future of games-the Nyx concept. The concept is actually to realize streaming media on a central computer around the family, and share games through the local wireless network.

This concept means that a high-speed wireless network is still needed. However, many problems surrounding the latency and bandwidth of traditional cloud games have been resolved or alleviated.

Edge Game

Cloud gaming may eventually become our way of gaming, but for the moment, game streaming still has some problems, because it requires an excellent network connection and extremely low latency. Concept Nyx can provide more gaming experience until we reach the point where cloud gaming is more usable. This concept basically involves a high-performance home computer that powers the entire system. This computer can use the local network to stream games to your laptop, mobile phone Or TV and other devices, use Alienware’s UFO controller to control everything . It can connect to all your different devices and switch quickly when you move around the house.

Nyx Multiplayer game on the concept

However, the system does not necessarily apply to only one person–according to Dell stated that Concept Nyx can support four game streams at the same time. Therefore, you can play a completely different game with other people in your family. These games will be streamed to completely different devices, but driven by a computer.

When you are walking around the house, Concept Nyx can intelligently switch between devices quickly. This allows you to resume the game on a different device in a few seconds.

Concept Nyx allows gamers in the family to access their entire game library and stream on any device. It can be connected to many large games Services, such as Steam, give you access to the games you buy online in one place.

The future of the game?

Concept Nyx is not fully prepared yet, Alienware is still working on it. In other words, you can’t get it yet. But in the end, this may become a consumer-oriented product. We still don’t know what its price is, of course, the design is not final.
