LG Expands Smart TV Gaming With New Titles And Mobile Gamepad Support

LG has rolled out a major update to its LG Gaming Portal, expanding the number of games available directly on its Smart TVs and strengthening its push into cloud-based and casual gaming.

The LG Gaming Portal now provides access to than 4,000 cloud-based games and over 600 casual titles. All of these games can be played directly on LG Smart TVs, using only the TV and a remote. LG says the expanding catalog is driven by partnerships with game studios and content creators, aimed at making large-screen gaming easier and accessible.

One of the latest additions is Just Dance Now. The game is now available on LG Smart TVs running webOS 22 or later in the US, Australia, Sweden, and Norway. Availability in Europe is expected in the coming weeks.

Through LG’s partnership with Ubisoft, players can follow dance routines to popular songs without a console. The LG Magic Remote is used to track movement through its built-in motion sensors, allowing players to dance alone or with others.

LG has also teamed up with Volley to bring voice-controlled games to LG Smart TVs in the US. Volley’s lineup includes TV game show titles like Jeopardy! and original games such as Song Quiz.

These games rely on voice input and are designed for group play in the living room. Volley reports that its games have been played by than 50 million people worldwide.

For racing fans, LG and Blacknut have introduced Asphalt Legends Unite in the US. The game is free with ads and unlocks all cars and maps from the start. Players can race instantly using the TV remote.

Another new title is My Little Puppy, an adventure game published by Krafton. The game follows a dog’s emotional journey and is streamed through Blacknut on LG Smart TVs.

LG has also launched the LG Mobile Gamepad Wi-Fi app on Android and iOS. The app allows smartphones to work as controllers for supported games, offering another control option without extra hardware.
