Through LG’s partnership with Ubisoft, the game can be played using the LG Magic Remote’s motion controls. Letting you follow routines and track movement without a console or dedicated controller. It’s designed for quick, social play.

Voice-Controlled Games Join the Portal

LG has also partnered with Volley to bring voice-controlled games to the Gaming Portal in the US. The lineup includes familiar game-show formats like Jeopardy! alongside music trivia titles such as Song Quiz.

The games rely on voice controls instead of standard game controllers, making them accessible through the TV itself.

Smartphones Can Now Act as Controllers

To make things even more flexible, LG has introduced a new Wi-Fi-based mobile gamepad app. Available on both Android and iOS. The app allows your phone to function as a controller for supported titles, without requiring a separate physical controller. Making multiplayer or shared play easier to set up.

Hackathon Winners Join the Gaming Portal

LG is also spotlighting creativity from its webOS developer community. Two award-winning games from last year’s LG webOS Hackathon have now been added to the Gaming Portal.

Quest of Sunflower by Couchplay, the Grand Prize winner, offers a family-friendly adventure built around AI-driven storytelling. Signs of Magic by Lukas Klingsbo places the LG Magic Remote front and centre, using its motion sensors to cast spells through gesture-based controls.
