Any updates on if/when Xbox cloud gaming will support local multiplayer?

I went to this game for cloud multiplayer and I could not play local multiplayer. Is it possible? Are there any games you can play multiplayer in the cloud?

Thank you, Ron!

Yes, you can play online multiplayer games, however, local multiplayer is not supported on cloud gaming.

I believe cloud gaming is the list of games that have a 'cloud icon' on the game menu. Is that right? And these games are not supported with local multiplayer.

How can identify online multiplayer games as I do not have a console? Apologies, if the question is inappropriate. Trying to understand how it works.

Hi Melkhiguy.

My name is Mauro and am glad to assist you.

Unfortunately Xbox Cloud Gaming or XCLOUD does not support local multiplayer not only with Samsung gaming hub but all devices with XCLOUD as it is limited to single player only, we are sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello Tothepointyeet Tothepointyeet,

Thanks for the response.

For the local multiplayer of games available in Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta), we recommend you send this idea or suggestion to Team Xbox. Since Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) is still supporting one player and one account at a time. Co-op may is not yet supported on this platform however, let us hope this will be part of the update soon.

As stated on this support article: How to use cloud gaming | Xbox Support - Note Cloud gaming does not support local multiplayer. Currently, it only supports one player and one account at a time.

Sharing your suggestion could help the Team Xbox see what they could do next update: Xbox Support

We join you in the hope that this will be part of the next update of Xbox Cloud Gaming Beta. If you have a different concern kindly create a new thread using this link.

Regards,

In GamePass cloud, all controllers control the same player, so local multiplayer is impossible. Odd, since Stadia and GeForceNow supported local multiplayer since day one.
