N-Dream is cooperating with game developer and publisher Team17, which is based in Wakefield in the UK, for its AirConsole, the Zurich-based company has announced. This partnership will enable Overcooked, a cooking-based game for several players, to be played on the AirConsole. N-Dream says the dynamic cooking game has many enthusiastic fans, and has won numerous awards “for its unique mix of fast-paced action and teamwork”.
Overcooked was developed by Ghost Town and published by Team17 in 2016. Up to four players oversee preparation of meal orders in different kitchens, within a time limit. “Overcooked's cooperative mayhem is a perfect fit for AirConsole's vision of inclusive and fun multiplayer gaming,” says Director of Content Michael Fuller.
AirConsole has a new approach for multiplayer games: the screen is the console. Smartphones are connected as controllers and are transformed into gamepads. All AirConsole games can be played on TV screens and in new BMW vehicles.
BMW announced in October 2022 that it had chosen AirConsole by N-Dream as a partner. This cooperation emerged from the BMW Startup Garage program, one of the BMW Group’s formats in its start-up ecosystem. BMW began installing AirConsole in its new vehicles in 2023.
