  1. Will I still be able to stream by own games from my console with the updated xcloud service?


    I haven't seen any official word on this, but streaming my Xbox One games from my console has been my favorite feature of xcloud. Playing Slay the Spire in a hotel 300 miles away from my console is incredible. Is this still doable or will I only be able to choose from the Game Pass titles? Thanks!

    Why do you need to buy game pass on Cloud Gaming to play games you own already?

    only games that are in gamepass are on the cloud gaming service, and only gamepass ultimate subscriber can use the service, it is not like nvidia cloud where you access your games.

    you can stream your games from console using your own console and your own internet.

    Xcloud does not take into account if you own the game or not, xcloud is a perk of ultimate sub only and not to play the games you own.

    Why Did Microsoft Patch Streaming Out Of Network?

    ...

    It could be that Microsoft could be about to make us pay for a feature previously allowed for FREE!!...
    You are confusing the xCloud service with streaming locally.

    Xcloud allows you to stream games you do NOT own to your console. You basically "rent" access to the games which run on server hardware somewhere in the cloud, and stream the video feed to any device that supports xCloud. Be it your home console, your tablet,
    smartphone or whatever. It's like Google's Stadia or what Sony does to bring backward compatibility to some Playstation games.

    This is vastly different to the home streaming that allows you to stream the video feed from your console that plays the games you "own" to a device that supports local streaming.

    Unless you are trying to allow thousands of people to access your own console from the internet to stream your games to them, you are not doing anything similar to xCloud.

    So don't make up some crazy conspiration theory like "Microsoft is taking away our streaming, so we have to pay to use xCloud"

    Assassins creed on cloud?

    Stream your own games through Xcloud is not fully available on console yet. Just for some Insiders. You may be able to go through the browser on the console and try from there.

    Xbox game streaming app on Xbox one first generation

    same issue.

    Are you talking about console streaming? Because my XCloud service works great. Played Gears 5 yesterday with no issues. However I want to play my own games on my device while I'm away from the XB1.

    XB1S here.

    xCloud Console Streaming vs. Cloud Streaming

    So with xCloud coming I'm mostly excited about being able to do the same with Xbox and not just in the same network via the Windows companion app or Onecast (which is expensive if you have to pay for it on multiple platforms).

    Anyone else in the same boat? Or are most of you looking forward to cloud streaming without depending on your own Xbox?
    To my understanding, people will not only be able to stream games from Microsoft's servers (for a fee), but also have the option to stream the games they own from their own Xbox console for free (I'm assuming you'll be limited to your own network).

    "However, there will also be a workaround available for those who own games on an Xbox system and plan to leave it plugged in and turned on. You will be able to use your Xbox as your own xCloud server, allowing you to stream games to any of your devices
    without having to pay an additional fee."

    https://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/microsoft-xcloud-price-beta-release-date/

    Although, I don't think they have announced any other specifics yet. I know they recently said xCloud will be in preview for some starting next month.

    https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2019/09/24/project-xcloud-public-preview/

    The problem for me is the preview won't be available in my region, so I won't be able to get hands on experience with it for awhile. At the moment though, I'd rather buy and own my games and play them on the console I already own. I'm still curious about
    the cost, latency, and bandwidth. Who knows, maybe I'll warm up to the idea once I get to test it out.
