Microsoft has grandiose plans: Phil Spencer wants to bring xCloud cloud service to every screen

Public launch of the cloud service Project xCloud the company Microsoft will be held in September this year. Platform technology service Azure, will first be available as part of a subscription Xbox Game Pass Ultimatehowever, this is only the beginning of the grand plans of the platform holder.

In conversation with the publication The verge Phil Spencer stated that in the future xCloud will only expand in terms of accessibility and distribution models. And if initially it was a question of supporting mobile devices, then later the service will be available on almost any device, while at the same time with a convenient trial system.

“We will gradually develop cloud gaming initiatives within our platform, as well as the ability to play games that you purchased that are not included in the subscription. At the time of launch, we will restrict ourselves to including xCloud in Game Pass Ultimate, without requiring an additional fee. We believe this is the most a suitable part of the audience who spends a lot of time on interactive entertainment.

But gradually, Project xCloud should get to all the screens that you can basically stream games to. So far we are talking only about mobile devices. But we continue internal discussions and work in different directions. We will talk about which phones will support xCloud during August and as part of the September launch.

As for the trial period system, it is important for us that it be as accessible as in the case of video and music services. For example, as in Spotify, where I can send a track, and you can listen to it right away. Ultimately, wherever I see this or that game, I should immediately have the opportunity to try it out, ”Phil Spencer shares his plans.

Beyond Launch Project xCloud, right now Microsoft is also actively preparing for the start of sales of a new generation console Xbox Series X. July 23 will be the presentation of games for her.
