    Running cloud gaming on TVs other than Samsung


    I am a bit shocked the cloud gaming is supported only on Samsung TVs.
    Isn't there an official solution to run other Tvs? Buying a Nvidia Shield might be a good solution to run on TVs, however as I see it is not supported on Nvidia Shield either.

    That will change next year or if you are on geforce now which has the ultimate and xbox.game library if you buy them

    EU /ms abk deal

    It's the way Samsung wants to support the xbox gaming app thru their gaming hub thata more a question for Samsung

    Different TVs have different hardware and abilities, many of which are required to make cloud gaming work reliably.

    Samsung is a long time Xbox partner, and during this beta period is doing the testing on TV platforms.

    I would speculate it will expand to other platforms, but your TV hardware still must be up to snuff when that day comes.

    Hello NadirGÖZCÜ, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

    I understand your surprise. Although cloud gaming is supported on Samsung TVs, there are other options you could consider:

    Xbox App on Smart TVs: Microsoft offers cloud gaming through the Xbox app on Smart TVs. However, you should note that you will need a subscription to Game Pass Ultimate or a compatible free game for cloud gaming.

    Amazon Luna on Samsung Gaming Hub: Amazon Luna is a cloud gaming service that allows users to play on a variety of devices, including 2023 Samsung TVs.

    Blacknut’s Cloud Gaming: This cloud gaming-based subscription service offers unlimited access to gaming content for TV screens.

    As for Nvidia Shield, although it is not officially supported by all cloud gaming services, there are some workarounds:

    GeForce NOW: Nvidia Shield is compatible with GeForce NOW, a cloud gaming service from Nvidia. Recently, Nvidia announced a new high-end tier for its GeForce Now streaming service, bringing a special benefit to the company's Shield TV device: 4K cloud gaming.

    Project xCloud: Some users have managed to run Project xCloud (now known as Xbox Cloud Gaming) on Nvidia Shield via sideloading. However, this method is not officially supported and is done at your own risk.

    I hope this information is useful to you. Always remember to check compatibility and system requirements before making a decision.

    Best regards.

    If you've got a laptop, connect that to the TV and run the Xbox cloud gaming via the Xbox App or via a browser. Perhaps not the perfect solution, but you don't need a powerful gaming machine, all of the processing is done server side. Pretty much any Windows 10 PC can run Xbox Cloud.

    Thanks for this detailed answer David, I would like to write my opinion on each:

    Xbox App on Smart TVs: Microsoft offers cloud gaming through the Xbox app on Smart TVs. However, you should note that you will need a subscription to Game Pass Ultimate or a compatible free game for cloud gaming.
    I want to play games with Game Pass Ultimate, However this is supported only on Samsung TVs if I understand correctly. Or will I be able to play Fifa 23 on my TCL TV?

    Amazon Luna on Samsung Gaming Hub: Amazon Luna is a cloud gaming service that allows users to play on a variety of devices, including 2023 Samsung TVs.
    Very limited amount of games supported. Not supported in Sweden (where I live)

    Blacknut’s Cloud Gaming: This cloud gaming-based subscription service offers unlimited access to gaming content for TV screens.
    Very limited amount of games supported.

    GeForce NOW: Nvidia Shield is compatible with GeForce NOW, a cloud gaming service from Nvidia. Recently, Nvidia announced a new high-end tier for its GeForce Now streaming service, bringing a special benefit to the company's Shield TV device: 4K cloud gaming.
    Sound like a good plan for me. I think I will do this but still disappointed because I have to buy "Shield TV" + "Geforce Now subscription" + "Xbox subscription". I was expecting to be able to play the games on my TV with "a single subscription" + "shield". Besides most of the Xbox games are not supported on GeForce now, but sounds like promising and improving.

    Project xCloud: Some users have managed to run Project xCloud (now known as Xbox Cloud Gaming) on Nvidia Shield via sideloading. However, this method is not officially supported and is done at your own risk.
    I will not trust on this, might break in the future :( Besides there are negative comments about the resolution.

    ---

    At the end, I think I will go for "Shield TV" + "Geforce Now subscription" + "Xbox subscription",
    and hope xbox/microsoft to announce something new; such as "official support of ProjectX on Shield TV Pro", or "Geforce Now includes Xbox game pass for free"...

    Thanks for the comment again.
