Opera GX lets gamers control their computer’s CPU and memory usage to make gaming and streaming smoother. It also features Twitch integration and numerous customization options.
Hello,
Today, we would like to invite you to try something completely new. Opera GX is a specially tuned version of the Opera browser, with new and unique features and design meant for people who love to play computer games. Right now, we are opening the early access program (for Windows), which means that, starting today, you will be able to download and test the browser and shape it with us. We will be launching the final version later this year.
GX Control lets you control the CPU and RAM usage by the browser
The GX Control panel is a brand new feature which lets you define how much of your computer’s CPU or RAM you are willing to let the browser use. By toggling on the circle, you can choose to devote a certain percentage of the computer’s resources to the browser. Opera GX will stay within these limits. This means that, unlike other memory-hungry browsers, Opera GX puts you in full control of your gaming and browsing experiences.
Welcome to Opera Gx Mobile.Download: https://www.mediafire.com/file/q5ugjxc181cpvdm/base.apk/file. Add functionality to Opera, or give it a new look. Browserling - Cross-browser testing. Cross-browser test websites in the most popular browsers such as Internet Explorer, Edge, Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera.
We introduced this feature because running a game might require a lot of effort from your machine, even more so if you are streaming while you play. We found that many gamers often shut down their browsers in order to not slow down their gaming experience. Thanks to GX Control, games can run more smoothly without requiring you to compromise on what you do on the web.
Gaming ready with Twitch integration
Opera GX’s Twitch integration is another handy feature. The browser lets you log into your Twitch account directly from the sidebar and will notify you when a streamer you follow goes live.
The browser’s speed dial screen is also different from the one you know from our main browser – it features shortcuts to sites popular among gamers including Discord, YouTube and Reddit.
GX Corner for latest gaming news and deals
We also created the GX Corner, a place where gaming news from the web will be presented along with curated gaming deals and information about new and interesting releases.
Gaming design, sound effects and gaming hardware integration
When you first start or upgrade Opera GX you will be welcomed by sounds and an animation sequence inspired by gaming consoles. The sound effects and musical logo creation in GX are a result of Opera’s collaboration with the sound designer Rubén Rincón and the band Berlinist, who recently received a nomination in the BAFTA Games Awards for the original soundtrack to the Gris game. You will be able to adjust or switch off the sound effects, as well as most browser features in the settings panel.
Opera GX comes out of the box with a sleek gaming-inspired design with dark and red elements. You can also choose a different highlight color from 10 suggested colors or go deeper and choose from 16 million possibilities using the extended color picker feature. We designed it to feel at home on any gaming setup.
Opera GX comes with an exclusive set of wallpapers designed to match the browser and the large displays of gaming setups. It also includes Razer Chroma integration, which means that the keyboard, mouse and other Razer Chroma elements will adjust their colors to the chosen highlight colors in the browser.
Opera’s powerful features are there
Opera GX includes all the features present in the Opera desktop browser. This means that, apart from the Twitch integration, you can also use the Telegram, WhatsApp, Facebook or Vkontakte messengers in the sidebar to stay in touch with friends without the need to open separate tabs.
Opera GX also retains the popular video pop out function which makes it easy to pop out a video from the website it is being streamed on and watch it on top of other websites.
Our built-in ad blocker will safeguard that websites load fast and distraction free while the free, no-log browser VPN will let you safely browse the web when using public WiFi.
We’ve summarized all the key features in an image:
Early access at Level 1 starts today
The early access to Opera GX for Windows starts today at Level 1, during E3 in Los Angeles. Instead of the usual versions, the browser’s development will progress in levels. The initial early access version is designed for those of you who love games. It also gives you the opportunity to shape the next versions, as our developers have added special feedback boxes throughout the browser, where particular features can be rated with one to five hearts. We would also like to encourage you to provide feedback and wish lists via the Opera GX forums.
Download Opera GX. A final version is planned for launch later this year.
Happy browsing!
Howdy,
Many of you already know Opera GX, the world’s first browser designed for all of us who love PC gaming. So you’ll be happy to learn that we are releasing a major new feature to GX which is completely unknown to other browsers: adaptive background music. This unique music feature is bringing the immersive sound experience you get from gaming into the realm of web browsing.
Opera Gx Mobile Apk
A small trip down memory lane for background: Opera GX initially launched in 2019, happily incorporating sound effects composed by Ruben Rincón and the Berlinist band. You might know of them from their Bafta-nominated soundtrack to Gris. One year later, the same team has lent their considerable talents to the new dynamic background music in Opera GX.
The dynamic background music is an ambient downtempo that will immerse you further in your gaming-themed browser. Actively browsing, clicking and typing intensifies the music, for example, while slowly scrolling and reading will take the music down a notch. This dynamic reaction to your activity blends into the background when you’re in focus-mode, so you often don’t notice it until you miss it.
Opera Gx Gaming Browser
We are excited to finally reveal the entire concept we’ve had in mind: We wanted to give our browser the immersive sound experience known from games, where a perfectly-composed soundtrack lets you focus more, forget about any worries and boosts your overall experience by adapting to the task at hand. I believe we have succeeded.
Anytime you need a break, or want to listen to something else, the background music and all browser sound effects can be switched off at will in the Browser sounds section in Settings.
Bringing the GX Composer Award to Game Music Festival 2020
Opera Gx On Mobile Phones
We see this initial background music as just the beginning, and we’re looking to expand it a great deal in the future. Just as we love different game genres, people are moved by different types of music. That’s why we want to give more game score composers the opportunity to present their music to millions of Opera GX users around the globe.
This year we are partnering with the international Game Music Festival and sponsoring its annual GMF 2020 High Score Competition. This competition will bring music score composers into the spotlight where they can not only win cash prizes, but also have their music featured in Opera GX by winning the GX Composer 2020 title. Look forward to it on September 16, 2020.
Twitter is now built into the Opera GX sidebar
Everyone who’s already using Twitch, Discord, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger and Instagram in the Opera GX sidebar will be happy with our new addition. GX’s set of integrated messengers has now been extended with Twitter, adopted from the main Opera browser. This brings yet one more way to keep up with friends and stay on top of trends without leaving your browser.
More noteworthy updates
While dynamic music, a game score competition and Twitter are the big news, there are a few more recent updates to Opera GX that are worth noting.
The Weather widget has been adopted to the GX homepage from our main Opera browser. You’ll first see weather from our home city of Oslo, but can set your own city by clicking on it.
Workspaces has a bunch of new icons for customization, and when you click links you can choose to open them in a specific workspace. Workspaces also now has a dedicated section in settings for creating your own keyboard shortcuts. Follow these steps to create them.
The Search in Tabs feature (Ctrl+Space) now searches page content, as well as title and URL, and lets you search for recently-closed tabs.
Searching for items on your History page (Ctrl+H) is now easier as well, since we have added date filtering to the search options. Once you have your search results, you can also click the new Delete History Below button, which will delete the items from your search only, without deleting the rest of your history.
Whew! That’s quite a lot of good news, and there will definitely be more to come. We will update you then and in the meantime – Happy browsing!
