UK’s O2 and Swiss gaming console company, AirConsole have partnered to offer O2 Priority customers, a month free of AirConsole’s AirConsole Hero plan.
AirConsole is a cloud-based video game console that is accessible from every home using a computer or a smart TV. The platform is available to anyone without a console or additional hardware as users can use their smartphones.
With AirConsole, long lockdown days can be spent popping balloons, racing crazy monsters or even fighting in a magma pit. And once the kids are tucked up, parents can unwind with Never Have I Ever, or even Cards Against Humanity, which we predict might lead to a few less-than-tuneful rounds of AirConsole Karaoke.
The platform provides a casual and social gaming experience, reminding users of the fun nights playing on traditional consoles, such as Nintendo 64 or Nintendo Wii.
“During challenging times for our customers, we wanted to continue to add value to their lives, giving them something fun to do whilst in isolation – Priority still brings unique experiences to our users, even when those experiences need to be in-door experiences,”
said Phillip Peacock, the Head of Partnership at O2 Priority.
To enjoy AirConsole free of charge for a month, go to Priority and follow the instructions.

Ten days after the announcement of Prime Minister Boris Johnson, the lockdown continues in the UK. While everyone is still adapting to these unprecedented measures, O2 has decided to provide the UK with a “Beat the Boredom” program to help everyone cope with these challenging times. As part of this offering, O2 partnered up with AirConsole, the rising star in casual gaming to provide fun to families in the UK.
