Abstract:
The disclosed computer-implemented method may include identifying a video game configured to be available to stream from a server within a cloud gaming environment; pre-loading an instance of the video game on the server before receiving a request by a user to stream the video game to a client system; receiving the request by the user to stream the video game; and allocating the pre-loaded instance of the video game to the user for streaming to the client system in response to receiving the request by the user to stream the video game, thereby reducing a latency between the user submitting the request and the video game being ready for the user to stream. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
