2021 was an outstanding year for Microsoft’s Xbox. The pandemic helped the sales of the consoles and hardware to boost. A few days back, Xbox Game Pass added various AAA franchise games, which got subscribers excited. Microsoft has no plans to stop for the rest of the year. There is news of ongoing technology testing in various fields of the console. The team is trying to make sure users get a first-hand experience of whatever is available in the market.

Recently, it has come to light that Microsoft is testing their xCloud feature through a web browser. Sources associated with the team reveal they are getting ready to launch the service for public review. xCloud on web browser allows users to open the games on browsers. They also allow users to open xCloud on devices like iPad and iPhones.

Xbox’s xCloud on Web working

According to The Verge, the upcoming technology is like the one available on Android devices and phones. The web version simply induces an extra tab with games, recommendations and even resume on recently saved games. It allows Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers to access all games on cloud. Once the user launches the game or hits resume, it will open full screen on the browser. All the users need is a controller to play the games, while streaming on the browser.

The resolution of the technology under Microsoft’s testing has not been revealed yet. But the sources disclosed the team is as of now testing on Xbox One S server blades for its existing xCloud infrastructure. Therefore, we can assume that full 4k resolution will not be available for immediate launch. The backend hardware needs to be upgraded to Xbox Series X components to support 4K.
