Shinra Technologies’ cloud gaming technical beta kicks off in Google Fiber-equipped Kansas City

The siren call of 1,000 megabits-per-second attracts a company that could really use it.

At SWSX in Austin, Texas today, supercomputer cloud gaming company Shinra Technologies announced that its technical beta will begin in the U.S. later this year and that those with Google Fiber in Kansas City will be among the first to get access to it. Since Google started laying the infrastructure for Fiber service in 2012, the city has welcomed several startups to the area that would stand to benefit from the groundbreaking service.
