Qualcomm is set to roll out Snapdragon GameCommand, an application that aims to strengthen the chip manufacturer's position in the mobile gaming market.
The Qualcomm Innovation Centre will unveil the application to the Android Market on 10 January, the opening day of the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
Snapdragon GameCommand will give mobile users a way to discover, organise and access the latest Snapdragon-exclusive games. It will also provide feeds from top gaming news sites to help consumers stay up to date with the latest gaming news.
“With mobile gaming proliferating at a blistering pace, apps like Snapdragon GameCommand make it easy for consumers to discover and access the most advanced Snapdragon-optimised games,” says Dave Durnil, director of advanced gaming at Qualcomm.
Snapdragon GameCommand will enable users to play more than 100 games on a wide range of mobile phones and tablets.
The Snapdragon GamePack includes several titles exclusively available on Snapdragon devices running on Android for a limited time, including Fight Game Heroes from Khaeon Gamestudio.
Fight Game Heroes features head-to-head battles with real mixed martial arts fighters, including multiple combat champion and UFC fighter Alistair "The Reem" Overeem.
Visitors to CES will have the chance to meet the six-foot-five, 265-pound Overeem in person and watch as he takes on Qualcomm executives in live rounds of Fight Game Heroes.
Snapdragon GameCommand is expected to be available in North America this month, and in other markets at a later date.
