Samsung has shared its intentions to introduce cloud gaming applications to its 2020 smart TVs by the end of this year. The announcement, which came to light during a recent Gamescom event, has yet to specify the particular 2020 smart TV models that will receive the update or a precise launch date.

Mike Lucero, Samsung's gaming product chief, expressed the company's excitement over the expansion. He mentioned, "We're excited to bring cloud gaming applications to our 2020 model-year TVs, granting tens of millions of gamers access to their preferred games and platforms."

A bit of history: Samsung unveiled its gaming TV hub for its 2022 smart TVs and monitors with integrated cloud gaming applications. This initiative was further extended in 2021 when Samsung added separate game streaming applications to its smart TVs. Noteworthy applications within Samsung's gaming hub are Xbox Cloud Gaming, Nvidia GeForce Now, and Amazon Luna.

Though the 2020 smart TVs may not receive the complete gaming hub suite, Samsung guarantees the arrival of cloud gaming apps. While specifics remain under wraps, it's plausible to expect well-regarded platforms like Xbox Cloud Gaming and Nvidia GeForce Now to make early appearances on these earlier-generation smart TVs.
