Play Xbox games on your mobile devices

Precedently, gamers can only play and stream Xbox games through various Xbox consoles. But with the continuous innovation of today’s technology, there are now apps that make it possible for you to play them on your mobile phones or tablets. Among those is Xbox Game Streaming (Preview). Developed by Microsoft Corporation, it enables you to enjoy console-quality games such as Gears 5 and Sea of Thieves. You can choose to play it directly from the cloud with Project xCloud (Preview) or stream the already installed Xbox One games on your console using the Xbox Console Streaming (Preview). Take into account that you’ll need a WiFi or cellular network and a compatible Xbox Wireless Controller with Bluetooth to effectively use either of those options.

Have fun streaming Xbox games through the cloud

With Project xCloud (Preview), there’s no need for you to wait for the download, as well as own the games or console. The app provides you with more than 50 installed Xbox games in the cloud, which you’ll surely have fun playing on your Android phone or tablet. But first, you must register for Project xCloud (Preview), as Microsoft only choose few people to test their technical preview. To register, you need a Microsoft account. There’s a possibility that you will wait for a few months for you to receive an acceptance email. Note that they are only accepting a limited number of participants. There’s a chance that you won’t be chosen to try the initial test.

Mobile access to the installed games on your Xbox console

If you already own an Xbox console, then the most suitable streaming way for you is through Console Streaming (Preview). This option enables you to pick up and play the Xbox games installed in your console library when and wherever you want. You can have mobile access to the installed games in your Xbox One, including Xbox Game Pass titles. However, this privilege is limited only to Xbox Insiders. You need to become one to experience this initial test. 

Shapes the future of game streaming

Xbox Game Streaming (Preview) is a vital game utility, especially for those hardcore Xbox gamers. However, the app looks to be in its trial stages and still needs further development. Players’ feedback will be an important component of the app. Microsoft can use those as a basis for some substantial improvements that can lead to the app’s perfection. Once improved, Xbox Game Streaming (Preview) can revolutionize the future of game streaming.
