Can I Sync the RGB lightings of Ambient Devices such as Nanoleaf light panels and Philips Hue together with MSI device?

Yes, MSI has created 9 exclusive preset lighting effects in the “Ambient Mode” tab of MSI Mystic Light, you can access on the default light effects without other additional set up.
Since those MSI exclusive effects are presetting, if you’d like to do customize set up on the Ambient Device, please check on MSI Center App.

Are there other ways to control Ambient Device via MSI Mystic Light if I’m not playing games?

Currently the MSI Mystic Light x Nanoleaf Ambient link only syncs during gameplay, such as: Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Tom Clancy’s The Division 2
Monster Hunter : World, Ghost Recon : Breakpoint, Watch Dog : Legion, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Far Cry 6, so if the game is not in progress, these two devices do not sync.

But, MSI is also working with other game developers; hopefully, we can release more games to work with MSI shortly.

Why does the light on the Ambient Devices look like not sync during some effects of the game play?

Due to some different connection and hardware used, in some effects (just few of them) during game play, there is limitation on syncing all the different (brands) devices in the same time, but in order to provide great experience to all MSI users, our team is working towards on the improvement.

Are there any upcoming games to be supported in the future?

Yes, we are working on adding other big title games into the list, and will release to all of you soon.
