Backbone, a platform powering game streaming and core gaming on mobile devices is on a mission to ‘elevate the gaming experience for everyone’ through its cross-platform streaming services.
After launching its inaugural controller in 2021, Backbone One, Backbone has seen a huge surge in popularity and has transformed the mobile-gaming community, which is accumulated by three billion users worldwide.
Backbone has created an unprecedented ecosystem where virtually all gaming services are available in one place in the palm of the hand. Players simply plug an iPhone into the Backbone One and can instantly play major titles on the App Store and Apple Arcade; stream games through cloud gaming services like Xbox Game Pass, Nvidia Geforce Now, and Amazon Luna; and play their Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and stream games anywhere through remote play.
In an effort to bring gaming systems together, Backbone has further established itself as the leading trailblazer within the game streaming space having secured partnerships with gaming giants, Microsoft and Sony. By integrating their software, the partnerships allow players to turn their phones into a portable Xbox or PlayStation, enabling users to game anywhere, anytime.
After every purchase of a Backbone One handheld device, users receive a one-month free trial to over 100 high-quality Xbox games with Game Pass Ultimate, three-month trial to Discord Nitro, £10 worth of in-game perks in Diablo Immortal, and a free trial to Backbone+, which gives you access to exclusive perks and the Backbone app, which serves as a hub for all your games, recommends new games, connect with friends, screen record, play on any screen, and more. With plans to grow and expand even further following their $40m raise in funding earlier this year, Backbone will be introducing an Android model which will be available from November 2022.
“Backbone was founded with one true goal: to elevate the gaming experience for everyone, everywhere,” said Backbone founder and CEO Maneet Khaira. “Just as Sonos and Roku have done for music and television streaming, Backbone unifies all the game streaming services and core gaming experiences on mobile devices.”
The Backbone One controller is available for purchase for £99.99 via the Backbone website and Amazon, with plans to roll out in several other major UK retailers later this year.
