Parsec (32-bit)

Parsec’s proprietary technology allows gamers of all stripes to play their favorite games at 60 FPS HD across multiple devices anywhere, anytime, and virtually lag-free. Games with local multiplayer are the easiest to setup. But don't let that stop your imagination.



Parsec 32bit for Windows PC works simply as a screen-sharing technology. You either share your screen with yourself (remotely), with your friends (for co-op), or with gamers around the world (to play your favorite games).

A host is defined by the computer/system hosting or sharing the game. The host handles the game being played and the players connected to it through the internet. The Parsec Game Streaming client(s) are the other computers/systems connected to the host. Crystal clear 60 FPS interactive streaming and cloud gaming fine-tuned for gaming and perfect for everything else.

With the Parsec platform, you can play any multiplayer game with anyone in the world with extremely low lag. Play any game online without worrying about subscribing to online services and which platform and hardware you and your friends use.

In the Arcade, it makes it easier to find someone to play your favorite games with. It’s a matchmaking service that helps you play local multiplayer games online with anyone anywhere in the world.
