Xbox Cloud Gaming Now Allows Game Pass Ultimate Members
Microsoft has announced that it is expanding its Xbox Cloud Gaming service, allowing Game Pass Ultimate members to stream select titles from their library of purchased games on supported devices. This new feature is now available in all 28 countries where Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) is available. Additionally, Microsoft has added 50 new titles to the streaming service, including popular games like Baldur’s Gate 3, Cyberpunk 2077, and Hogwarts Legacy.
Xbox Cloud Gaming is Expanding:
Xbox Cloud Gaming, which is available to Game Pass Ultimate subscribers, enables users to stream select titles from the Game Pass catalog on supported devices such as TVs, web browsers on iOS, Android, PCs, handhelds, and tablets. With the latest update, Game Pass Ultimate members can now stream select games they own, even if those titles are not included in the Game Pass catalog. Currently, Xbox Cloud Gaming is available on Samsung Smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV devices, Meta Quest headsets, and via web browsers on PCs, smartphones, and tablets.
The new feature, currently available on TVs and web browsers on supported devices, will be extended to Xbox consoles and the Xbox app on Windows next year, according to Microsoft. In their announcement, the company also shared a list of 50 titles that can now be purchased and streamed. All editions of a supported title will be available for streaming.
How to Start Streaming Games You Own:
To start cloud streaming a game you own on a web browser on your PC, phone, tablet, or handheld, simply visit https://xbox.com/play. Once you sign in to your Game Pass Ultimate membership, select ‘Stream your own game’ and look for cloud-playable titles you own or want to purchase and stream. You can connect a supported controller to your device and start playing. On PC, certain games will also support mouse and keyboard input, as confirmed by Microsoft.
On supported TVs, you can download and launch the Xbox app, while on supported VR headsets like Meta Quest, you can download the Xbox Cloud Gaming app. Sign in, select ‘Stream your own game,’ and connect a supported controller to start playing.
50 Titles Now Cloud-Playable:
With the expansion of Xbox Cloud Gaming, there are now 50 games that can be streamed via the service with a Game Pass Ultimate membership. Some of the notable titles include Animal Well, Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, Baldur’s Gate 3, Cyberpunk 2077, Hogwarts Legacy, and many more. The complete list of titles can be found on the Xbox website.
Microsoft’s expansion of Xbox Cloud Gaming to include streaming of select titles from users’ own game libraries is a significant development for Game Pass Ultimate members. With the ability to stream games they own, even if those titles are not part of the Game Pass catalog, users can enjoy a wider range of gaming options on supported devices. As Microsoft continues to work with partners to expand the library of cloud-playable titles, the future of Xbox Cloud Gaming looks promising for gamers worldwide.
