While early reviews of the service are positive (assuming your internet connection is stable enough to handle the service’s workload), it’s going to be hard to talk about xCloud’s potential in the long-term until we have a better idea of how Microsoft intends to bring the program to more devices. Spencer also spoke about the team’s desire to bring Game Pass streaming to Windows 10 sometime next year, and a browser-based streaming solution would be a potentially effective way to allow PC gamers to access the technology regardless of the power of their device.Īt the moment, though, the xCloud program is largely limited to Android devices.

Then again, maybe that’s not the only thing they’re developing this technology for.

While that’s certainly not impossible, the investment in such technology would potentially be significant, especially if Microsoft intends to use it solely to circumvent Apple’s rules.

It doesn’t sound like Microsoft has a solution to this problem in-place quite yet, but the report claims that the current plan is to develop a way for users to access xCloud and Game Pass content via their browsers.
