Xbox Cloud Gaming Exits Beta With Some Improvements
"Along with Xbox Cloud Gaming exiting its beta state, Microsoft also announced that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can experience "enhanced" streaming quality up to 1440p and the "shortest wait times." Game Pass Ultimate is now $30/month after the company's revamping and price hike of Xbox Game Pass, though you can still lock in $20/month pricing for Ultimate through Amazon."
"Initially announced as Project xCloud in 2018, Xbox Cloud Gaming officially launched in 2020 as part of the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription plan. Subscribers of the newly minted Xbox Game Pass Premium ($15/month) and Essential ($10/month) can also now take advantage of cloud gaming, albeit without the resolution improvement and shorter wait times. An Xbox Insider update in August indicated that subscribers of the lower Game Pass tiers would eventually be able to stream games."
Xbox Cloud Gaming has exited its beta label. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers receive enhanced streaming quality up to 1440p and the shortest wait times. Game Pass Ultimate now costs $30/month, with $20/month pricing still available through Amazon. The service will "go up to 1440p for select games and select devices," though specific games and devices were not clarified. Xbox Cloud Gaming began as Project xCloud in 2018 and officially launched in 2020 as part of Game Pass Ultimate. Newly introduced Game Pass Premium ($15/month) and Essential ($10/month) tiers now include cloud streaming without the resolution improvements. Game Pass Ultimate adds Fortnite Crew and Ubisoft+ Classics, and new Call of Duty releases carry a notable asterisk.
