IRX rendering acceleration technology enhances mobile game performance, providing players a smooth 120fps gaming experience with low power consumption for Honor of Kings

SHANGHAI, June 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Pixelworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: PXLW), a leading provider of visual processing solutions, today announced a collaboration with Tencent’s TiMi Studio group on the mobile game Honor of Kings. As a long-recognized standout within the multiplayer online battle arena (“MOBA”) genre, this game integrates the IRX rendering acceleration SDK, allowing certified devices to deliver a smooth 120fps gaming experience with detailed visuals and low system power consumption. Notably, Honor of Kings is the first MOBA mobile game to integrate Pixelworks’ IRX rendering acceleration technology, which provides smartphone users with a uniquely smooth and immersive gaming experience jointly tuned by Pixelworks and the Honor of Kings’ technical team.

As both Tencent’s first and the world’s most played 5v5 team battle mobile game, Honor of Kings has been beloved by players since its launch. According to Sensor Tower’s 2024 APAC Mobile Game Market Insights, Honor of Kings remained the top-grossing game from January to April 2024. Underpinned by the growing trend towards high-profile mobile games, there continues to be increasing demand for high picture quality and high-frame-rate gaming experiences from mobile gamers. For multiplayer online battle games, higher frame rate provides smoother visuals, enhancing both character animations and enabling more instantaneous skill releases. High picture quality makes the game visuals clearer and more realistic. Bringing all of these combined performance benefits together simultaneously requires advanced processing and hardware capabilities, which have traditionally been limited to games played on a PC or console.

To achieve the optimal balance between visual performance and power consumption, Pixelworks collaborated deeply with Tencent’s Honor of Kings technical team. Leveraging IRX rendering acceleration technology, the GPU on certified smartphones can render display content at lower frame rates and resolution, reducing overall power consumption while still achieving stable and smooth 120fps high-resolution visual performance. Further capitalizing on Honor of Kings being the first MOBA game to integrate IRX rendering acceleration, the technical team also introduced a diverse series of display modes to meet different players’ unique needs and preferences. By entering the game settings interface and turning on “IRX Rendering Acceleration” in the image setting menu, players can switch between “High Quality” and “High Frame Rate” modes in real-time. In High Quality mode, details in the world of Honor of Kings are vividly displayed. In High Frame Rate mode, hero operations and attacks are smoothly performed. The above modes will be applied to a growing number of smartphone models in the future.  Outside of battles, players can experience the details of heroes and skins more realistically with IRX Rendering Acceleration enabled.

As one of the most popular mobile games in China, Honor of Kings always prioritizes players’ gaming experiences. Every technical update or iteration is a testament to the technical team’s dedication to game content creation and their ambition to expand the boundaries of the gaming experience. The introduction of Pixelworks’ IRX rendering acceleration technology for game optimization and upgrades will further enhance picture quality and performance, allowing players to truly feel the innovations brought by new technology and enjoy a richer mobile gaming experience.

“We are excited to optimize the mobile gaming experience for Honor of Kings,” said Ting Xiong, President of Pixelworks China. “Known for its detailed and clear graphics, stunning battle skill effects and realistic combat modes, the game continues to be extremely popular among players worldwide and a shining star in the MOBA genre. The integration of IRX rendering acceleration technology into the game represented a new and rewarding challenge for our respective teams, and the end result represents a meaningful refresh of the mobile gaming visual experience. This technology significantly enhances game immersion, achieving comprehensive advancements in visual effects and performance. We look forward to further technical cooperation with the Honor of Kings team in the future, as we continue to expand the gaming ecosystem in multiple dimensions and bring sustainable high-quality, high-frame-rate and stable gaming experiences to more players.”

2024 Financial Oscars: Waton Securities International Honored as “Outstanding Digital Empowerment Institution” of the Year

Published

on

By

SHENZHEN, China, Dec. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In early December, at the 18th Huaxia Institutional Investor Annual Conference of 2024, the 18th Golden Cicada Awards were announced. Waton Securities International was awarded the “Outstanding Digital Empowerment Financial Institution of 2024” for its significant achievements in securities brokerage and fin-tech sector.

The selection for the “Outstanding Digital Empowerment Financial Institution” focused on evaluating companies based on financial performance, market competitiveness, customer recognition, digital strategy planning and implementation, digital transformation outcomes, and risk control capabilities. Particularly, it highlighted cases that have made significant strides in digital empowerment.

The evaluation also emphasized the outstanding performance of financial institutions in their own digital transformation and the sound risk control abilities demonstrated during this process, ensuring that while pursuing innovation, companies can effectively manage and control risks. Waton Securities International distinguished itself among the contenders with its sophisticated technology platform, well-defined digital strategy, substantial transformation achievements, and commendable risk control mechanisms.

Established in Hong Kong in 1989, Waton Securities International has steadily grown with a deep understanding of professional financial services and regulatory compliance. It has obtained licenses 1/4/5/9 from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, becoming a fully licensed brokerage with comprehensive financial service qualifications. Through continuous technological innovation and digital transformation, it has successfully built a one-stop brokerage cloud service platform, promoting advanced digital financial technology globally. Its pioneering SaaS product, “Broker Cloud”, allows corporate clients to independently deploy and operate high-performance digital customer information management and trading systems without their own IT teams. The solution is relatively low-cost and adaptive to industry, which is the core competitiveness of Waton Securities International.

Data reveals that of the 1,100 securities firms in Hong Kong, approximately 600 are actively trading, yet fewer than 50 have developed their own mobile applications. On a global scale, among the 30,000 securities companies, only a handful—less than 300—feature brokerage trading Apps in App stores. This underscores a significant market demand for the digital enhancement of the securities sector.

With the swift growth of technologies like generative AI LLMs, blockchain, big data, and cloud computing, the securities industry can use these tools to streamline trading strategies, assess risks more accurately, and forecast market trends. These technologies also help the industry to move towards more integrated, platform-focused, and digital operations. The main goal of technology in finance is to increase the efficiency of financial institutions. A good starting point for applying technology is to focus on financial services and build a solid technical foundation for these institutions.
