Xbox Cloud Gaming Exits Beta With Some Improvements
Xbox’s cloud gaming service has reached a milestone, shedding its “beta” label.
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.
Speaking to The Verge, Microsoft director of gaming and platform communications Dustin Blackwell said that the service will “go up to 1440p for select games and select devices,” though Xbox hasn’t clarified which games and devices support higher resolutions.
