| Razer has enhanced gaming on PC and mobiles with a new tournament platform: Cortex Instant Games. Cortex Instant Games is a brand-new tournament platform focused on instantly playable casual games, which is now available for Android devices and will soon be available on Razer Cortex on PC. No additional downloads are required to play Instant Games from the Razer Cortex app. Each event includes tiers of Razer Silver awards that can be redeemed for Razer hardware, accessories, and digital incentives. Razer is releasing the first-ever SnekiSnek game starring Razer’s popular, environmentally aware mascot at the same time as Cortex Instant Games Tournaments. SnekiSnek Adventure is available to play now, and charity contests will be held only on Razer Cortex. Users must steer SnekiSnek away from poisonous hazards and collect seeds from planting trees to get bonuses in the Instant Game. The tournament leader board is updated in real-time, allowing players to track their progress and compete for Razer Silver rewards. As part of Razer’s ongoing commitment to more sustainable business practices and decreasing its global carbon impact, all earnings from SnekiSnek Adventure will be donated directly to Conservation International. |
| Cortex Instant Games will begin with 4 to 6 tournaments running at any given moment, as well as over 100 other games available for free play across a variety of genres. Additional games and tournaments will be launched and rotated onto the platform regularly to ensure that all players have consistent and different competition. “Through interacting with our millions of users in the Razer Cortex app, we know that gamers love a challenge – wherever they are and regardless of what platform they’re playing on. This offered us a great opportunity to introduce competitive casual gaming directly to a ready and eager player base,” said Quyen Quach, Senior Director of Software at Razer. Also added, “Razer Cortex creates experiences and offers rewards in a way that only Razer can, harnessing the full potential of our interconnected ecosystem of hardware, software, and services.” Razer has teamed with Goama to use their extensive library of hypercasual games and tournament hosting capabilities for Cortex Instant Games Tournaments. Goama provides an advanced gamified environment that transforms any app into a gamified powerhouse, opening up new ways to engage users, acquire new users, and keep existing ones. “We are proud to be working with Razer to create more ways for players to improve their gaming skills and be rewarded for their performance,” said Taro Araya, CEO of Goama. On both mobile and PC platforms, Razer Cortex enhances and customises your gaming experience. The programme accesses your existing game library and optimises your mobile or PC’s performance for a faster, smoother gaming experience. Razer Cortex is the ultimate companion software for any gamer at home or on the move, thanks to features like this and Razer Silver, which rewards players for playing multiple games across mobile and PC. |
