Subscribers to Microsoft’s majorly successful Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will soon gain access to the company’s new streaming service, Project xCloud, this September.
In a blog post, Xbox Head Phil Spencer announced that Game Pass Ultimate members would be automatically eligible for Project xCloud at no extra charge. This means members who opt-in can play over 100 games on mobile devices like phones and tablets. On top of that, players can switch between platforms without losing progress due to xCloud’s cross-save feature.
What We’re Yet to Find Out
Of course, we still have a few details that seem to have not come up within the initial announcement of the integration. To start, it’s unclear on whether Game Pass Ultimate subscribers will gain a full subscription to Project xCloud, or if this inclusion will only apply to games that are available on Game Pass. The post also stated that this combined membership would only become available in “supported countries”, with no specifications on which countries fall under “supported.”
IGN reached out to Microsoft for further information, where a spokesperson replied, “We’ll share specifics as we get closer to launch.”
