CMGE is a leading mobile game developer and publisher in China. The company has developed a number of popular mobile games, including “Sword and Fairy” and “The King of Fighters.” In a press release (translated) the company announced the deal by saying the following:
“In the future, CMGE’s main game products will be connected to Azure OpenAI services in compliance and apply its large-model capabilities to the company’s game product development and operation in the future, so as to reduce costs and increase efficiency, and also bring players a richer game experience.”
Microsoft Azure OpenAI is a cloud-based platform that provides developers with access to Microsoft’s artificial intelligence technologies. The platform includes a number of features that can be used to improve games, such as natural language processing, machine learning, and computer vision.
CMGE plans to use Microsoft Azure OpenAI to improve its games in a number of ways. For example, the company plans to use natural language processing to create more immersive dialogue for its games. CMGE also plans to use machine learning to improve the AI of its games, making them more challenging and engaging.
How the Partnership with Impact Cloud Gaming
The partnership between CMGE and Microsoft Azure OpenAI is a significant development for the gaming industry. It is the first time that a major Chinese gaming company has partnered with a Western technology company to use artificial intelligence to improve its games.
The partnership is likely to lead to the development of more immersive and engaging mobile games. There are benefits that CMGE expects to gain from the partnership with Microsoft Azure OpenAI:
- Improved game development: Microsoft Azure OpenAI’s artificial intelligence technologies can help CMGE to develop games more quickly and efficiently.
- Improved game quality: Microsoft Azure OpenAI’s artificial intelligence technologies can help CMGE to create more immersive and engaging games.
- Reduced costs: Microsoft Azure OpenAI’s cloud computing platform can help CMGE to reduce the costs of developing and operating its games.
This partnership will likely boost Microsoft Azure’s market share and revenue in the global cloud infrastructure market, which is expected to reach $237 billion in 2023. According to Statista, Microsoft Azure had a 23 percent market share in the first quarter of 2023, behind Amazon Web Services (AWS) with 32 percent and ahead of Google Cloud with 10 percent.
By partnering with Tencent, one of the largest gaming companies in the world, Microsoft Azure will gain access to a huge customer base and potentially increase its competitive edge over its rivals.
