Razer has officially launched PC Remote Play, a powerful new game streaming platform that allows gamers to play their entire PC game library on mobile devices. Razer PC Remote Play, which was first introduced at CES 2025, transforms smartphones, tablets, and handled Windows devices into powerful gaming consoles, streaming games in their native resolution, aspect ratio, and refresh rate for high-fidelity gameplay on the go.

The service, which is currently available on the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store, requires users to install Razer Cortex on all their Windows 10 or 11 PCs as well as Razer Nexus and Razer PC Remote Play on their mobile devices. The platform is compatible with iOS 18, Android 14+, and Windows handhelds, and it supports popular game storefronts like Steam, Epic Games, and PC Game Pass.

Razer PC Remote Play, which uses the same streaming technology as Moonlight, uses the AV1 video codec to increase image quality and reduce latency. It's designed to run smoothly even at speeds as low as 15 Mbps, while Razer recommends at least 30 Mbps for best results. Both devices must be connected to the same network during the initial pairing process before you can stream games from anywhere.

The app also has deep integration with mobile gaming controllers, especially the Razer Kishi Ultra, offering console-quality control on the go. It provides immersive haptic feedback with Razer Sensa HD Haptics, delivering tactile sensations like in-game explosions and vehicle rumbles directly to supported controllers.

The Razer Nexus app allows you to search, configure, and launch games directly, as well as control customization, gameplay recording, and controller updates.

Whether you're a casual gamer or a die-hard enthusiast, Razer PC Remote Play transforms your mobile device into a real extension of your gaming PC— free to download and ready to play anywhere, anytime.
