Finally, one of my favorite party gaming providers, Jackbox Games, is finally ready for a beta version of its games coming to Smart TVs and ‘Other Platforms’ in the spring of 2025, which means it is a good time to be the owner of the best smart -tv’s.
The gaming company announced a new app for smart TVs and other platforms that allow you to play a selected selection of its popular party games. Unfortunately, the app wants ads, but my enthusiasm has darkened this disadvantage.
Known for its catalog of party games with several players perfect for throwing shade on your best friends, Jackbox’s range of interactive games usually comes in ‘party packages’ consisting of a handful of different games you can play on your free time once purchased.
Until now, the Jackbox Gaming Service has only been available on PC or game consoles, which means it has not always been easy to play it on a large screen. You can also subscribe to the Jackbox Games on Amazon’s Luna Cloud Gaming Service for a monthly fee of $ 4.99, but this dedicated app for smart TVs should make it much easier among other devices.

According to the official Jackbox blog post, the company has expressed its desire to make its services more accessible: “It has always been our goal to bring these games to as many people as possible and make them as easy to play as we can. That’s why we advertise a new Jackbox app that allows you to play jackbox games on your smart TV and other platforms.”
The smart TV version of its service works in a partnership with AWS Gamelift -streams that “quickly allows (us) to launch and stream games to all sorts of devices from smart TVs to web applications.”
Instead of buying individual party packages, the smart TV version of Jackbox will offer a small collection of AD-supported games for free before introducing a subscription fee that gives users full access to the entire catalog. Pricing is not yet known for this yet.
As it says, there is not much information about what smart TV models will support the app or which countries have access first. However, we assume that Jackbox will go closer to the launch.
