    Xbox game pass streaming - 'Play' option not showing


    Hi all,

    I would like to try the new game streaming feature on my android phone, but I can't seem to get it working.

    This is my setup:

    • Samsung Galaxy S7 with Android v.8
    • The Xbox game pass app, downloaded from the Google Play store (though I have also tried the Xbox Game Pass (Beta) app with the same results)
    • An Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription valid until January next year
    • An xbox one controller connected via bluetooth (the app definitely recognises that the controller is connected because I can use it to navigate the menus)
    • An internet connection via my home wifi (though I have also tried 4g)

    My understanding from reading the confusing articles about it, is that, when you have a pad hooked up, a new 'row' should appear on the Game Pass app labelled 'play' that should show games you can stream. This does not appear for me and I can't find any
    option anywhere to stream games in the app.

    :)

    Hi,

    Unfortunately Game Pass does not allow you to stream purchased games. Game Pass requires a subscription to Game Pass ultimate to play any games available on the service.

    In short, in order to stream a game you need:

    • An Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription
    • The game you want to play to be available on the service.

    Xbox Game Pass Hour - Streaming/Content Creation

    I have been watching your Xbox game pass hour streams since the first one and it is awesome, I cannot miss one. I have downloaded a lot of the games that I have seen on your streams that I wouldn't have otherwise and it has been very helpful for me to
    determine which games I would actually play. I love game pass and with your streams it just shows why game pass is worth the extra money. Your game reviews are just as awesome, you cover all the details of the games instead of just adding the main points.
    You are by far the biggest Xbox ambassador that I have seen, always willing to help the Xbox community.

    Windows 8.1 not seeing XBox One

    Though to complicate things further, the Xbox One DOES show up when I go to "Media Streaming options" under Network and Sharing Center and show devices on Local network... it is set to "Allowed". But it only shows up in the one screen, and not from the devices
    manager or as a "Play To" option.

    Does Xbox game pass enable game pass on Windows 10?
