August 25, 2021. Image: Microsoft. Microsoft is still continuing on its path towards bringing Xbox to every device you might already own, and the next stage would be to bring xCloud to its older. Microsoft previously dropped hints at adding xCloud support on Xbox consoles. It is now one step closer to becoming a reality after the company’s Gamescom 2021 showcase on Tuesday. Microsoft's Xbox Cloud Gaming Service Arrives on iOS, Mac and PC: Upgraded to 1080p at up to 60 fps. For those wishing to learn more about xCloud, you can head over to Microsoft’s website. Project xCloud (Preview) will work over either a Wi-Fi or mobile data connection that supports 10Mbps-down, similar to streaming video. If you are using Wi-Fi, we recommend using a 5Ghz connection. Please note mobile data charges or ISP fees may apply. While there’s still time before iOS users will finally be able to join in on the fun, looks like M1 Mac users can already enjoy xCloud games using the Android emulator. For those who aren’t familiar, Microsoft’s xCloud is a cloud gaming service, which allows subscribers of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to play more than 150 games on Android.

After more than two months of beta testing, Microsoft is readying the launch of its xCloud Game streaming platform on Safari, Edge, and Chrome in the “next few weeks.” This comes after Microsoft had been pushing to bring xCloud to the App Store.

The company made the announcement today in a blog post about “bringing the joy and community of gaming to everyone.” Here’s what Microsoft said:

In the next few weeks, cloud gaming on the browser will open to all Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members. With Edge, Chrome, and Safari support, players will be a click away from gaming on almost any device.

Microsoft wanted to offer the xCloud Game platform as an app on the App Store, but since Apple policies don’t allow app stores inside the App Store, the Redmond had to scrap its plans last year.

In April, Microsoft announced it was going to open the beta test program of xCloud Game on web browsers. To enjoy the platform, users must be an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscriber.

The public beta offered access to over 100 Xbox Game Pass titles. The official Game Pass has around 300 titles that are expected to work with xCloud Game without the need of a TV or a monitor, just a web browser on your iPhone and iPad, for example.

In the blog post, Microsoft also noted that “Cloud gaming through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will launch in Australia, Brazil, Mexico, and Japan later this year” as well.

With E3 starting this Saturday, Microsoft could be preparing to give more details about the xCloud Game at the conference.
