Starting today, subscribers to theXbox Game Pass Ultimate will be able to stream games to their Android phones via the beta of the service Project xCloud, one month earlier than previously announced. This "limited beta test," second Microsoft products, will allow for a smoother transition for the service prior to its previously advertised full launch for Ultimate subscribers on September 15th.
As you well know, Microsoft products ha confirmed and Project xCloud it would have been an integral part of the service Xbox Games Pass Ultimate and available starting in the month of September on devices Android, without mentioning in any way a possible release for the Apple mobile devices. explaining that currently there is no solution to bring Project xCloud on iOS:
Our Project xCloud iOS app test period has expired. Unfortunately, we don't have a path to bring gamers our vision of cloud gaming with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on iOS via Apple's App Store. Apple is the only platform that, for general purposes, denies consumers cloud gaming and gaming-themed subscription services like Xbox Game Pass.
We will strive to find an "alternative" path to bring cloud gaming with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to iOS devices as well. We believe that the customer should be at the center of the gaming experience and that it is the users and the players who decide their game, connect and share their experience wherever they are, no matter where they are.
Phil Spencermoreover, a few days ago he stated that Project xCloud is not the definitive name of the ambitious streaming service, which will inevitably clash with Google Stadia given their similar nature. We will have to wait a little longer to see the real potential of the project Microsoft products. What do you think about it? Do you believe that the future of gaming really lies in streaming services?
