Cloud gaming hits Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on September 15th - Engadget

Microsoft’s video game streaming technology, Project xCloud, will come to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on September 15th, at no additional cost to members.

Microsoft revealed in July that xCloud would be rolled into Game Pass Ultimate in September, but didn’t share an exact date or specific titles coming to the service.

Today, Microsoft listed the names of 36 games heading to Game Pass Ultimate via xCloud, and we’ve published those at the end of the article.

Project xCloud makes Xbox console games playable on Android smartphones and tablets, streamed in over WiFi or cellular data.

Game Pass Ultimate costs $15 a month, and it gives members access to a massive game library on Xbox consoles, PC and Android devices, plus Gold multiplayer services.

Combined, Game Pass and xCloud streaming will theoretically give players a massive, constantly updated game library that’s accessible on practically any piece of hardware they have, negating the need for a shiny new console.

With xCloud in Game Pass Ultimate, players will be able to seamlessly transition among platforms, starting a game on the console and continuing it on a tablet, or vice versa.

XCloud will be available via Game Pass Ultimate in 22 countries at launch, and those are as follows: Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
