Is there a way to do cloud gaming while also using my xbox?

Hi there Zen M, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

I'm sorry to inform you that it is not possible to play on an Xbox console and through Xbox Cloud Gaming with the same account simultaneously. This is because when playing on Xbox Cloud Gaming, the games run on their Xbox console version, which is basically as if you were playing on another Xbox console, and it is not possible to play on two Xbox consoles simultaneously with the same account.

This does not apply, for example, if you play your downloaded games on a PC while someone else plays on Xbox Cloud Gaming. These are considered two different devices (one being the PC and the other being Xbox Cloud Gaming, which is like playing on an Xbox console).

I hope this helps and if you have further questions please let me know.

Kind regards,
Gerardo.

Well yes and no

First cloud can only.used by the subscriber meaning your account

You can use.your.console.but you can only be signed in one device .at.a time

You can.set.your console. as. Home .but since yoir profile.is being used for Cloud you would.need.to create. a .second .profile.to use.while they use your profile.on the tv

I'm excited for xbox one

I have 3 xbox 360's in my home now and I use the cloud for all my game saves to go between different xboxs. Everybody says that the cloud sucks and syncing your games takes way to long..but

I have been using the cloud only, and my hd as a back up once and a while. And when it says "syncing ur games save from the cloud"' It literally takes less than 5 seconds.

I have 2 big xboxs and 1 slim, and they all 3 have been functioning the same way.

I believe this can only get better too!

How do I sync my saved games to the cloud?

While you’re connected to Xbox Live, saved games are automatically stored in the cloud. If you use your Xbox profile to sign in to a different Xbox One console, your saves are available from that console.

Do I need an Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription to use cloud storage?


No. Anyone signed up for the Xbox Live service can store their saved games in the cloud.

It should function similar to Steam and XBOX 360's cloud saves now. There's a local copy that syncs to the Cloud when you finish. There's also conflict resolution which lets you choose if you use your local save or cloud save if you go offline and then reconnect.



Cloud saving on Steam is very convenient. I can start a game on my gaming PC, then switch to my Razer Edge while out and about, then switch back to my gaming PC when I get home.
