Blacknut, the leading B2B & B2B2C cloud gaming service announces the continuation of its partnership with globally acclaimed publisher Square Enix, bringing a new wave of blockbuster Square Enix titles to the Blacknut catalog, further strengthening the platform’s premium game offering for players worldwide.
The collaboration reflects a shared vision between the two companies: to make high-quality gaming content more accessible across borders and platforms, including high-growth markets such as Latin America, the Middle East, and India.
As one of the most active investors in the cloud gaming ecosystem, Square Enix is known for its bold embrace of emerging technologies and business models. Making additional titles from its repertoire available on Blacknut is a natural step for the publisher, whose games are beloved for their immersive storytelling and high production values. This move further solidifies Blacknut’s position as a trusted partner for global publishers looking to reach new audiences via the cloud.
“We are thrilled to expand our collaboration with Square Enix, a studio synonymous with some of the most memorable experiences in modern gaming. This partnership demonstrates the value of cloud gaming as a channel for publishers to expand their reach, especially in regions where traditional console access is more limited. With Square Enix’s legendary catalog now more accessible than ever, we’re proud to offer our players the chance to enjoy these iconic adventures on any device.”
- Nabil VP New Business and Licensing at Blacknut
“Our continued partnership with Blacknut aligns with our long-term strategy to embrace innovation and grow our audience globally. Blacknut’s leadership in cloud gaming, especially in markets like LATAM, MENA, and India, makes them a key partner for reaching players who are eager for high-quality, on-demand gaming experiences. We’re excited to bring some of our most iconic titles to new audiences in a seamless and accessible way.”
- Hideaki Uehara, General Manager of Investment & Business Development at
Square Enix Holdings.
With this renewed collaboration, players across 65+ countries will enjoy Square Enix’s storytelling and open-world excellence via Blacknut’s all-you-can-play subscription model—without the need for downloads, installations, or expensive hardware.
And this is just the beginning; additional Square Enix titles are expected to join the Blacknut platform as both companies continue to explore new ways to deliver premium content to gamers everywhere.
