Xbox Cloud Gaming to bring GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2

Since their release in 2013 and 2018, respectively, both Grand Theft Auto V and Red Dead Redemption 2 have impressed millions of players worldwide. They have enjoyed these games on multiple consoles and PCs as well. But now they will be able to stream them from any internet-enabled device. Yes, the immensely popular Rockstar titles are set to arrive at Microsoft’s ambitious cloud service.

According to insider Ben, on Twitter, GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 are set to make their debuts on Xbox Cloud Gaming. The scooper shared two images taken from the official website for the streaming service. The pictures clearly show these two supported for the Cloud Gaming.

However, they were soon removed from this website and can’t be found anymore. This implies that Ben might be right in speculating that GTA 5 and RDR2 are ready to release on the Xbox Cloud Gaming.

As of now, only the Game Pass titles are available to stream on the service. Microsoft, however, is working on bringing more titles like Elden Ring that are not included in the subscription service.

If the latest news from Ben turns out to be true in the long run, it will be a massive gift for all the players who don’t have high-end systems. Because streaming doesn’t require a powerful hardware. The only requirement is the connectivity to the internet. Probably that’s the biggest reason why cloud gaming is gaining rapid momentum these days.

Meanwhile, GTA and RDR fans were elated to find out that their favorite games will soon make it to the Xbox Cloud Gaming. Have a look at some of the most amazing reactions below:
