In fact, it would have to make similar functionalities available to those who don’t have an Xbox Game Pass subscription, and I’m not sure whether that’s in line with the company’s strategy. While I can see that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate plus xCloud has the potential to be my ideal gaming platform, it’s not quite there yet. If Microsoft wanted to demonstrate that the future of gaming doesn’t have to be tied to a single console, or even buying new games on launch day (as first-party titles get Day One Game Pass releases), it’s hard to imagine a better demonstration. Better still - one subscription fee gets you access to hundreds of games across three platforms. You choose your screen, and your game follows you, regardless of where you want to play. Simply put, this is what gaming in the 21st century should look like. Had the two games also supported cross-saves with the PC, the trifecta would have been complete - but more on that shortly. Once again, the syncing process worked flawlessly, and playing on a tablet was almost as smooth as playing through on a powerful Xbox console. I tried the same experiment in reverse with Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, starting a brand-new save file on the Xbox, then transitioning back to the tablet after playing through the first chapter. The game synced my save data, and I jumped right back into the action, only this time on a big screen with better graphics and no risk of latency. With an Xbox controller connected via Bluetooth, my experience was almost identical to what I’d find on a console, simply on a smaller screen.įrom there, I saved the game, shut down the app, and sat down on my couch in front of the Xbox One, where I had the game fully installed and ready to play.
It streamed directly from a Microsoft server in what appeared to be 720p, no installation required. While the app itself isn’t perfect, I was eventually able to get A Plague Tale up and running. Here’s how a play session went: I started the game on my Android tablet, just to see if it would work.
