Chromebooks have gained a ton of popularity in the market in the recent past, especially after the inception of the Coronavirus-led pandemic. The Chrome OS-powered devices are great for digital learning and working from home and come at affordable prices. However, Google is now aiming to take Chromebooks to the next level as the Mountain View giant is currently working on developing gaming-focused Chromebooks to cater to the lucrative gaming market.
Google has been putting a lot of focus on gaming lately. The company debuted its cloud gaming service, Google Stadia, back in 2019. Recently, we saw the company release a few Android games in beta for the Windows platform, thanks to its Google Play Games app on Windows. Now, according to recent changes in Chrome OS, it seems like Google is working on gaming Chromebook devices.
Which Companies Might Launch Gaming Chromebooks?
Coming to which companies might launch gaming Chromebooks in the future, the report suggests that there are hardware codenames associated with the RGB feature – Vell, Taniks, and Ripple. While Vell and Taniks will be reportedly based on Intel’s 12th-Gen Alder Lake laptop processors, Ripple seems to be an internal codename for laptop or tablet with a detachable keyboard, as per the report.
