Ooredoo has made a major move in expanding cloud gaming services by joining forces with MobiBox. This partnership brings Blacknut Cloud Gaming to the Go Play Market platform, increasing gaming accessibility across Ooredoo’s markets.
The agreement was signed at MWC 2025 in Barcelona and marks a significant step in the growth of cloud gaming across the MENA region. Customers in Qatar, Kuwait, and Oman will be among the first to access Blacknut’s extensive game library. With over 500 cloud-based games, players can enjoy gaming instantly on smartphones, smart TVs, and tablets.
This service removes the need for expensive gaming consoles or high-performance PCs. Ooredoo is expanding cloud gaming services to make high-quality gaming more convenient. The company is also offering direct carrier billing, allowing users to subscribe without a credit card and enjoy uninterrupted access.
By adding Blacknut to its Go Play Market, Ooredoo is strengthening its digital entertainment ecosystem. The platform already provides live TV, video-on-demand, music, and audiobooks. The latest expansion makes it a more comprehensive digital hub.
Rene Werner, Chief Strategy Officer at Ooredoo Group, highlighted that cloud gaming is in high demand. He emphasized that integrating Blacknut into Go Play Market will offer customers a seamless and modern gaming experience.
MobiBox plays an essential role by handling payment integration and marketing. The company ensures that subscriptions remain effortless through direct carrier billing. AI-driven marketing campaigns will also help promote expanding cloud gaming services to a wider audience.
Hussein Taki, Managing Partner at MobiBox, expressed excitement about this collaboration. He noted that simplifying payments and increasing access to cloud gaming will bring in more users.
Blacknut’s VP of New Business & Licensing, Nabil Laredj, stated that this partnership highlights the growing demand for cloud gaming. By working with Ooredoo and MobiBox, Blacknut will be able to reach new gaming audiences across the region.
