MTN South Africa and sportech company Telecoming said on Wednesday they have extended their partnership to launch a new cloud gaming service in South Africa. The service, MTN Cloudplay, allows MTN customers in South Africa to access and stream cloud-based high-end PC games to their mobile phones without the need for downloads or high-end gaming consoles. MTN is also leveraging its 5G network to promise low latency with minimal lag for the games, said Jason Probert, GM for digital services at MTN South Africa. MTN South Africa launched its 5G network in 2020. Last week, MTN South Africa and Huawei said they had completed a 5G-Advanced network trial in South Africa at MTN’s head office in Johannesburg.
