Key Takeaways

Pizza Hut Gaming

Pizza Hut Delivery UK is diving into the gaming world by supporting esports events and planning participation in Twitch Rivals. The company aims to connect with the gaming community through pizza giveaways and various promotions on Twitch. This move is part of a broader trend, with companies like KFC Gaming also embracing the potential of the gaming industry. Pizza Hut's involvement highlights the growing recognition and support from brands outside the traditional gaming sphere, signaling a promising expansion for the industry.

DirectStorage for Windows 10 and 11

Exciting developments in gaming technology reveal that both Windows 10 and Windows 11 will soon incorporate DirectStorage, a DirectX feature originally debuted on the Xbox Series X. This technology allows games to transfer data directly from storage to the graphics card, bypassing the CPU. This innovation leads to faster loading times and enhanced gaming performance. Microsoft's decision to extend DirectStorage to Windows 10 alongside Windows 11 underscores their commitment to improving PC gaming experiences across multiple versions, much to the delight of the gaming community.

Ordnance Survey AR App

Ordinance Survey, the UK's premier mapping agency, is set to revolutionize exploration with an upcoming augmented reality (AR) app inspired by the success of Pokรฉmon Go. This app will enhance outdoor activities by providing an immersive experience that allows users to explore the UK countryside with rich, interactive information about various locations, without the need to constantly look at their phones. Encouraging outdoor exploration, this initiative shows how a traditional mapping company can utilize gaming technologies to engage with a broader audience. This move not only underscores the wide-reaching influence of gaming on diverse industries but also highlights how gaming principles are being adapted to foster a deeper connection with the environment.
