Samsung Electronics announced on the 20th (local time) that it will participate in the world's largest game show, 'Gamescom 2025,' which opens in Cologne, Germany.

At this exhibition, Samsung Electronics will unveil the Odyssey G7 new model (model name G75F) and expand its lineup of large gaming monitors. There are a total of 2 types: a 37-inch 4K UHD (aspect ratio 16:9) and a 40-inch 5K2K WUHD (aspect ratio 21:9).

The Odyssey G7 adopts a 1000R curvature, providing an immersive gaming experience, supporting high refresh rates of up to 180Hz (40-inch) and 165Hz (37-inch), and a fast response time of 1ms (GTG).

It supports the latest gaming features, such as 'HDR10+ Gaming' for optimal HDR quality, 'CoreSync' that adjusts the product's rear lighting and colors according to screen colors, and 'Auto Source Switch Plus' which automatically switches to the screen of IT devices.

The 37-inch and 40-inch Odyssey G7 are scheduled to be sequentially released in global markets, starting in Korea this month, followed by North America and Europe.

Visitors to the Samsung Electronics booth will be able to experience Netmarble's upcoming release for the second half of the year, 'Mongil: Star Dive,' and SHIFT UP's popular game 'Stellar Blade' in 3D mode through the Odyssey 3D monitor.

Samsung Electronics has newly partnered with Netmarble and SHIFT UP to expand the 3D games available for the Odyssey 3D monitor.

Odyssey 3D provides an optimized 3D gaming environment with features that adjust 3D depth using 'focal distance adjustment' to control the distance between the camera and focus reference, and '3D settings' that recognize the left-right disparity to optimize 3D stereoscopic effect.

Samsung Electronics plans to offer more than 50 games that support 3D, including 'Stellar Blade,' 'Lie of P: Prelude,' and 'Mongil: Star Dive' by the end of this year.

At booths of major gaming companies such as Blizzard and Pearl Abyss, users can experience popular games on Samsung Electronics' Odyssey OLED monitors.

According to market research firm IDC, Samsung Electronics held an 18.9% market share in global gaming monitors with a refresh rate of over 144Hz in terms of value in the first quarter of this year.

Jung Hoon, vice president of Samsung Electronics' visual display division, said, 'We will continue to expand partnerships with gaming companies to implement optimized gaming environments for each game, as well as enhance hardware performance, leading the premium gaming monitor market.'
