In 2021, mobile gamers’ interest is turning to customized gaming experiences. According to App Annie data, one of the biggest innovations in the mobile game industry, which achieved a total revenue of 116 billion dollars and reached 2.7 billion players last year, was the modified games produced by changing the graphic elements and scenes of the games. In this context, cloud-based Android game platform BlueStacks has announced the world’s first mobile game modification platform to adapt the modification feature familiar from popular games on the PC platform to mobile games. Rosen Sharma, Founder and CEO of BlueStacks, evaluated the developments with the following words: “Our Creator Studio and Creator Hub platforms, which we developed as BlueStacks, are based on the prediction that the majority of mobile gamers will play modded games by 2025. We are making mobile game modification accessible to the global gamer community with these platforms, which provide an environment for mobile gamers to create and share endless versions of the games they love.”
“Mod games are an important tool for players to express themselves”
Expressing that mod games are an important tool for players to express themselves, Rosen Sharma said, “Mobile cloud is created by now.gg and its NFG platform. Supported Creator Studio and Creator Hub platforms allow mobile games developed in Cocos, Unity and Unreal Engine game engines to be modified by players and reach billions of users. In BlueStacks Creator Studio and Creator Hub, modding can be done at three levels. In this way, users of all levels can create their own modifications. While basic modding involves playing with colors, mid-level involves modifying in-game events such as effects when winning or losing. Users with advanced modding can easily change two- and three-dimensional textures, including the clothes of their avatars in the game, and share their original game modes with other players.
“Bluestacks is shaping the future of mobile gaming”
BlueStacks App Player, which enables users to play Android games on any device, exceeded 1 billion downloads in the last quarter of last year. Reminding that BlueStacks launched the world’s first mobile game streaming service with BlueStacks X after this success, BlueStacks CEO Rosen Sharma concluded his evaluations with the following statements: “In addition to BlueStacks X, NFG (now. gg fungible games) we have made moves that we believe are transformative in the mobile gaming world. Creator Studio and Creator Hub, which offer the opportunity to make modifications in mobile games, can work in the BlueStacks X application or in the now.gg cloud. Thanks to this platform, which allows players to change their favorite games and share their modifications with everyone without knowing coding, players can also access thousands of mods created by other players or publishers they love. Bringing the modification power familiar from popular PC games to mobile games, BlueStacks Creator Studio and Creator Hub are positioned as one of BlueStacks’ moves to shape the future of the mobile gaming industry.”
