The \u201cRecommended for you\u201d tab connects players to promotions and purchase options, such as a 20 percent discount on Xbox Wireless Controllers in 17 European markets. In the US, users can purchase the LG Magic Remote via the ShopTime app for games playable without a controller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LG revealed the launch of \u201cHigh Score Challenge,\u201d designed to spark competition among players. Accessible from the \u201cAll Games\u201d tab, it encourages gamers to climb leaderboards in titles like Color Mash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Over 4,000 cloud-based games available<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>600 free single and multiplayer titles offered<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>New collaborations expanding access to AAA and casual games<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>LG is also expanding its game catalog through its partnership with Blacknut, adding individual cloud game subscriptions.
