Game platforms are systems that allow users to play video games. They can be hardware, like consoles such as the PlayStation or Xbox, or software, like PCs running various operating systems. Each platform has its own unique features, game libraries, and user interfaces, catering to different types of gamers. Additionally, there are mobile game platforms, which include smartphones and tablets. These devices often use app stores, like the Apple App Store or Google Play, to distribute games. With the rise of cloud gaming, platforms like NVIDIA GeForce Now and Google Stadia are also becoming popular, allowing users to stream games without needing powerful hardware.
