Microsoft To Build βNetflix for gamesβ With Project xCloud
At Microsoftβs invitational editorβs meeting recently, CEO Satya Nadella has revealed upcoming plan to push into video game streaming thatβs called Project xCloud.
With it, they plan on offering users/gamers to play high-quality games on any device.
The company has referred it by the nickname βNetflix for gamesβ. You wonβt need your device to power up the game, where a more powerful computer will remotely power it.
All you need to do to play is simply stream it to your device (phone, console, laptop, PC, etc).
Nadella even thinks that the company is in a good position to tackle latency issues that comes with streaming over the internet when compared to the competition.
Project xCloud is not the first to come up with the idea, where some have been announced or are already operating such as Sonyβs Playstation Now and Googleβs very own Project Stream.
As of now, Project xCloud is still in development where the company plans to run public tests of the service this year.
Pokdepinion: All I can say is, we wonβt get the best out of the service, especially for those whoβs running on low-end internet access.
