SEOUL, Jan. 15 (Korea Bizwire)LG Electronics Inc. said Wednesday it has signed a strategic partnership with Microsoft Corp. to strengthen the content of the gaming platform of its smart TVs.

Under the partnership, additional Xbox games from Microsoft, including the Harry Potter game “Hogwarts Legacy,” will be available for subscribers of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on LG TV’s AI webOS platform, the company said in a press release.

The company did not provide an exact date for the new Xbox games.

LG Electronics currently provides about 4,000 games through the AI webOS gaming platform globally, it said.

The partnership with Microsoft is part of the company’s efforts to broaden the extensive selection of content and services accessible on AI webOS, a company spokesperson said.

In September, the company announced it will invest more than 1 trillion won (US$740 million) to significantly enhance the capabilities of its webOS platform and related businesses.

The company expects AI webOS to help it morph into a “smart life solutions provider” from a consumer electronics manufacturer.
