Microsoft also has eyes on a bigger prize.
For a start, you’re still paying the company to buy the games, and while you could argue that GeForce Now could make the Xbox Series X and Series S obsolete, Microsoft will still get some money out of you. While more choice is always welcome, this isn’t an altruistic move on Microsoft’s part. So, it might seem odd that the company is bringing its games to a rival service.
While Google has dropped out of the game streaming service battle, Microsoft is a keen player itself with its Xbox Cloud Gaming service. While Gears 5 will be the first Xbox game on Nvidia GeForce Now, it won’t be the last, with Deathloop, Grounded and Pentiment coming on Thursday May 25, and more likely to come soon.Īccording to Nvidia, support for the Microsoft Store will also come in the future, which could open up possibilities for you to stream games from Microsoft’s Game Pass subscription service via GeForce Now. This includes Halo Infinite and Bethesda's new, forthcoming sci-fi RPG, Starfield.This means you could potentially play Gears 5 on a cheap Chromebook and, depending on the tier and quality of your internet connection, get better performance than if you played the game on an Xbox Series X console. Microsoft adds releases of its own and many third-party games on the same day they are released in stores. Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and original Xbox games are part of the line-up, the latter two through backward compatibility, so there are plenty of top titles to choose from. Some titles might become unavailable as others are added, but you also have the option of buying any of the collection outright at discounted prices. You can download the games and play them as often as you like, as long as you continue to pay the monthly fee. If you upgrade to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, you also get Xbox Live Gold, PC Game Pass, EA Play and access to Xbox Cloud Gaming, all for the same price. Xbox Games Pass gives you access to well over 300 games to download and play on your Xbox One or Xbox Series X/S for one monthly fee. What is Xbox Game Pass and Game Pass Ultimate? Here's everything you need to know about Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
