Game Pass Ultimate members can now stream 50 selected owned games not included in Xbox Game Pass to supported devices via Xbox Cloud Gaming (beta). Microsoft plans to expand the catalogue and availability in the future.

Microsoft has expanded its cloud gaming service. Game Pass Ultimate members can now stream select games they own to TVs and browsers on supported devices. This includes Samsung Smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV devices, Meta Quest headsets, and other browser-supported devices such as PCs, smartphones, and tablets (Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, or Apple Safari). Available in all 28 countries where Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) is offered.

"This is just the beginning. Next year, we're excited to bring this feature to Xbox consoles and the Xbox app on Windows," Ashley McKissick, Corporate Vice President, Xbox Experiences and Platforms Engineering, said. Previously, only games included in the Xbox Pass Ultimate membership could be streamed. McKissick: "We've also heard your excitement about having more flexibility to stream games you own beyond the Game Pass catalog."

This currently applies to 50 games in the Microsoft/Xbox Store library that are not included in Xbox Game Pass, including Balatro, Cyberpunk 2077, Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, Farming Simulator 25, Final Fantasy 1-6, Mortal Kombat 1, Star Wars Outlaws, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Visions of Mana and Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2.
