Microsoft’s upcoming xCloud gaming service for the web was leaked in a screenshot. According to The edge, the service is currently being tested by Microsoft employees before its public release.
xCloud is Microsoft’s cloud gaming service and is currently available on Android devices. The service lets you play games from Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on your phone when they are streamed to the cloud. This is done through a dedicated app, which is not on iOS as Apple, in its typical ludicrous way, required games on the service to be submitted individually for review and also take its share of each.
To work around this issue, Microsoft decided to start developing the web version of the xCloud service, which can be loaded through the web browser on a compatible iPhone or iPad. The user can then play their Game Pass titles provided they have a controller. The service will also be accessible to desktop computers through their respective browsers.
According to The edge, the service currently only appears to work on Chromium browsers during testing, but that could easily change when it goes live. At the very least, we can expect support for Safari, as iOS seems to be the primary target for this service.
