Only the first four games on this list, Need for Speed No mits, Hit, Vainglory, Olympus Rising, will be able to take advantage of Vulkan, which was previously referred to as the “next generation OpenGinitiative.”

y this matters: Samsung’s been touting its hset’s compatibility with the Vulkan A since the launch of the Galaxy S7, but there have been so few game titles to actually show its prowess. Samsung’s ready to put its money where its mouth is, so to speak, the first order of business is getting its users to actively experience the Vulkan A’s capabilities so that there’s weight behind all that active marketing.

The game pack will be officially available to Galaxy Note 7 users beginning August 20 through nuary 31, 2017.
