#Odyssey Ark

Samsung has just announced the global launch of the Odyssey Ark. Hailed as the world's first 55-inch 4K 1000R curved gaming screen with mind-bending features such as a 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, a Cockpit Mode, and its exclusive controller, the Ark Dial. Cockpit Mode is simply the ability of the Odyssey Ark to rotate 90° in a way that keeps the screen vertical when viewing. The Ark Dial is the exclusive control for the Odyssey Ark allowing users to simply and quickly control the monitor's settings such as Flex Move Screen, Multi View, Quick Settings, and Game Bar. The Ark Dial is also charged via USB-C, eliminating the need for disposable batteries. Pre-orders for the Samsung Odyssey Ark will begin August 15 and it will set you back USD 3,499.99.

The move marks the end of an era for PlayStation's physical game format, which has been part of the brand since the launch of the original PlayStation console in December 1994.
