Razer PC Remote Play
Irvine, California, United States and Singapore
What it is
Razer PC Remote Play streams games from a Windows PC to mobile devices and lets users browse and launch PC games remotely. Razer says it works with libraries including Steam, Epic, PC Game Pass, and other PC game libraries. Streaming adjusts automatically to the mobile device’s maximum resolution and refresh rate. Razer Cortex Mobile can browse and configure games, customize controls, record and share gameplay, and update controllers. Pairing uses Razer Cortex on the PC together with Razer PC Remote Play and Cortex Mobile on the mobile device, using a Razer ID or PIN. Initial pairing requires both devices on the same network. Later remote play depends on home network configuration and requires UPnP support and enablement. Razer lists 15 Mbps as the minimum bandwidth and recommends more than 30 Mbps for ideal play. The PC download supports Windows 10 64-bit and Windows 11; mobile requirements are described as iOS 18 and Android 14 or later, with the FAQ listing Android 12 or above.
