BMW Operating System 9 Controller-Based Gaming

The optional “BMW Digital Premium” offering allows BMW customers with BMW Operating System 9 to access an extended range of products from the BMW ConnectedDrive Store.

As well as on-demand functions for the vehicle, the store also offers an ever-evolving selection of third-party apps in the categories music & audio, news & magazines and gaming for the infotainment system.

More games are now being made available via this channel for in-car enjoyment.

And occupants will also be able to play using proper gaming controllers in future.

BMW is presenting this new form of gaming experience for the first time at CES 2024.

For example, “Beach Buggy Racing 2” offers customers an action-packed racing game that evokes memories of the great console classics.

Two players in the vehicle can compete against one another in split-screen mode using their gaming controllers.

Any standard gaming controller with Bluetooth capability can be connected to the infotainment system in just a few steps.

The controller link-up will be made available over the air for BMW Operating System 9 during 2024.
