Is playing xbox games possible without a console? Is projectXcloud up, running and giving...

Xcloud isn't available on PC yet.

The only way to play via a PC/Laptop is via an Android emulator such as Bluestacks.

How to Play Xbox Games on PC With BlueStacks and xCloud

This should work fine on your laptop specs. Remember, Xcloud is a streaming service, all the graphics processing is done server side and sent to your device. That's why it can run on Android phones.

Streaming should work fine on your laptop but it's not powerful enough to run PC Game Pass titles natively. Your machine is probably one of Dell's flagship 'Inspiron' range from about 3 years ago. Fine for basic productivity, awful for gaming.

your laptop may be able to play basic games but it is too underpowered for mainstream games, for one you are using intel hd graphics which the majority of games will not run on and thats not just Microsoft store games either.

xcloud is in testing for browser use but no word when release for pc will happen.

Greetings,

I add that if there was the possibility to run the game without disc... you may ask a friend to give you a game, install it on your console, and then, play without the disc. It's not fair! As we have said, you must insert the disc.

Have a nice day!

Hi there,

In order to complete initial setup, you will need to update your console and sign into your Gamertag. From there, it is possible to play games offline, without their patches, until you next connect to Xbox Live. To maintain a consistent
and secure service, console and game updates are mandatory, in the long run.
