IMAGINATION AT GDC
Imagination GPUs power immersive gaming experiences across mobile, desktop cloud, and automotive platforms. As gaming continues to expand beyond traditional devices, our GPU IP is engineered to deliver exceptional performance, efficiency, and visual fidelity wherever players choose to engage.
We’re excited to share our exiting solutions and future roadmap for for bringing exceptional gaming experiences to:
- Next‑generation mobile devices
- The rapidly expanding automotive gaming sector
- High-density, multi-tenancy cloud gaming
- Laptops and desktop workstations
If you’re building the future of interactive entertainment, we’d love to talk.
Book a meeting with us at GDC 2026 to explore our upcoming GPU technologies, discuss optimization support for engines and tools, and discover how Imagination can help you deliver groundbreaking performance on devices powered by our hardware.
GPU IP Built for Mobile & Cloud Gaming
Modern mobile and cloud‑native titles demand more from graphics hardware than ever before. Imagination GPUs are designed to excel in these environments, delivering:
- High performance at industry‑leading power efficiency, making them ideal for battery‑powered mobile devices.
- Exceptional scalability, enabling seamless transitions from smartphone‑level workloads to desktop‑class cloud gaming deployments.
- Advanced shader architectures that support the complex effects and high‑fidelity visuals modern game developers expect.
Whether players are streaming from the cloud or running natively on handhelds, our GPU IP ensures smooth, high‑quality experiences with the performance headroom developers need.
AI‑Accelerated Graphics for the Next Era of Games
Our latest generation of GPU IP introduces on‑GPU AI acceleration, enabling cutting‑edge techniques such as neural shading. This breakthrough allows developers to use machine‑learned models directly in the rendering pipeline to achieve:
- More realistic materials
- Higher‑quality upscaling
- Accelerated content creation workflows
- Visual effects previously impossible under traditional shading models
Neural shading represents a step‑change in how games will be rendered in the future—and Imagination is delivering that future today.
Gaming Comes to the Car
The vehicle is rapidly becoming a new frontier for entertainment, and gaming is at the centre of this evolution. As car manufacturers integrate richer in‑vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems, GPUs must rise to new challenges: multi‑display rendering, power efficiency under strict thermal envelopes, and support for premium interactive content.
Imagination’s automotive‑ready GPU IP brings:
- Robust safety features
- Low power, high throughput graphics pipelines
- The visual quality carmakers need to deliver console‑class infotainment gaming
With gaming poised to become a distinctive element of the automotive user experience, Imagination GPUs ensure the performance and reliability required by leading OEMs.
