VK Play Cloud Gaming Adds Virtual Gamepad Customization
VK Play Cloud Gaming has added a virtual gamepad configurator to its mobile app, allowing users to customize controls to their preferences and the characteristics of their smartphones.
Players can now resize buttons, freely move controls around the screen, adjust stick sensitivity, add and edit controls from a library, and save completed layouts for later use. This makes controls more convenient across different devices: users with larger smartphones can enlarge buttons, while those with compact devices can group controls in convenient areas of the screen.
Alexander Mikheev, CEO of VK Play, said the configurator is a step toward a more personalized interface. Future service updates will add new controls, including movement keys, function buttons and tools for mouse emulation, he said.
For now, the configurator works only with the virtual gamepad in the mobile app and is not available when playing through a TV.
VK Play Cloud Gaming lets users run demanding new games even on low-powered devices as long as they have a stable internet connection, with the computing handled by a powerful remote PC. The cloud gaming service is available on PCs, laptops, smartphones and TVs, while unlimited plans also include a “Virtual Computer” with preinstalled games.
