IT House May 7 news, Microsoft officially announced a plan called Xbox Everywhere, designed to allow people to play Xbox cloud games on as many devices as possible.
In addition, the plan also intends to decouple Xbox cloud gaming from Xbox games, allowing people to play their own game libraries for free. For example, “Fortnite” was the first test case, but there are also rumors that Microsoft is developing a streaming service, To make it easier for users to use their cloud services.
VentureBeat insider @Jeff Grubb broke the news that the Xbox team is working directly with Samsung to develop an Xbox streaming app for its TVs.
Of course, Samsung is currently the world’s No. 1 TV manufacturer, so it seems that if Microsoft wants to persist, Samsung, Sony and other platforms cannot be avoided.
Grubb also said that Microsoft is working on a streaming device, which could be a cylinder similar to some earlier Roku devices, that will let you stream games and video at the same time.
IT Home understands that Microsoft mentioned in the Xbox Everywhere program:
At Xbox, our mission is to be gamer-centric and to bring joy and connection to gaming. We want everyone in the world to be able to play the games they want with the people they want on their devices. We call it “Xbox Everywhere”.
We want to make games accessible to as many people as possible and to reach 3 billion players worldwide, so we’re investing heavily in cloud computing — both to serve players so they can play the way they want, and Serve creators so they can reach new and larger audiences and develop, run and manage their games with best-in-class cloud computing tools and services.
We also opened cloud gaming services in more places including Mexico, Japan, Australia and Brazil. In all these new countries, the gaming community was very enthusiastic, especially Brazil, which surprised us. In the first few weeks, the cloud gaming experience rate was so high, the demand from fans exceeded our server capacity that we had to rapidly deploy more hardware to meet the demand. The support we’ve seen in new countries, coupled with the availability of more games on more devices, has led to encouraging results. Over the next few months, you can expect cloud gaming to launch in more places – we can’t wait to share more information later.
According to Grubb, the Xbox streaming box and Samsung app will launch sometime in the next 12 months, and there is still no further information on such things, so stay tuned.
