XCloud or Xbox Game Streaming on PC?

I'm confused about this

So what seems to be the consensus here is that Remote Play is identical to Xcloud so if a game is not on xcloud, then it cannot be streamed from the console?

I was under the impression that you could start a game on your console, open the Xbox App on your PC and then stream the game directly across your home network. As it's being streamed from the console, it doesn't need installing on PC therefore wouldn't matter if there was a PC version or not?

Seems my knowledge of consoles is woefully inadequate.

No, the Streaming app for xCloud allows for online play of those xCloud games or will allow you to stream your Xbox games to your phone.

Xcloud isn't available on PC yet.

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

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.

Yes it is. You can install Xbox application on your tablet and share screen from your Xbox.

Other way is to go in the Xcloud program and stream your games to your mobile phone. Soon, that streaming will be on PC also.

First, welcome to the Xbox community. Microsoft has the Xcloud service that is included as a benefit for people who subscribe to the ultimate game pass. As a subscriber to the service, you could play Xbox games via streaming, through your PC Xbox app, or browsers.
