Web-Based Xbox Cloud Gaming Beta Launches Tomorrow for iPhone and iPad

Microsoft has announced that its launching a beta of its web-based Xbox Cloud Gaming service tomorrow for iPhone and iPad. The beta will also be available for Windows 10 PCs.

Starting tomorrow, we’ll begin sending out invites to select Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members to start testing the Xbox Cloud Gaming limited beta for Windows 10 PCs and Apple phones and tablets via web browsers. We’re launching xbox.com/play where invitees can play over 100 Xbox Game Pass titles through Edge, Google Chrome, or Safari. Offering cloud gaming through the browser and having a simplified, universal landing page presents a great opportunity to make cloud gaming approachable to more players in more places over time.

The beta is limited but Microsoft says it will send out more invites on a continuous basis to players in all 22 supported countries.


"Our plan is to iterate quickly and open up to all Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members in the coming months so more people have the opportunity to play Xbox in all-new ways."

If you receive an invite, you'll need a compatible Bluetooth or USB-connected controls or you can use custom touch controls for over 50 games. Hit the link below for more information on how to play, an updated list of supported devices, and release notes.
