With the official launch of xCloud streaming as a part of Xbox Game Pass last month, Microsoft introduced a wide variety of games to mobile users with an attractive pricepoint. For $15 a month, you not only had access to the full Game Pass library across PC and Xbox One but could experience those titles on the go with your mobile device. It's a hell of a deal.

One thing is lacking, however: streaming on PC and console. While the idea of xCloud is for mobile users to game without the need for Xbox hardware, the technology itself would make sense across other platforms too. Some games never receive PC ports and there's even the potential to stream next-gen games on your current Xbox One console while you save up for an Xbox Series X. Why wasn't xCloud made available across these two platforms?

As it turns out, Microsoft is looking into it. On Twitter, a fan had posed the question to Microsoft's Aaron Greenberg and Phil Spencer. Will Game Pass streaming ever come to PC and console? As Spencer said, "It's in the long list of cool things the xCloud team is working on, just a bit further down the list."

From that comment, it seems Spencer is looking to streamline the Game Pass experience on a console rather than supplement buying a Series X. Many people don't have access to the most reliable internet, and downloading 40+ GB games just to try them for 10 minutes doesn't make a whole lot of sense. If you could quickly stream it to get started, that would be a huge benefit to players.

As I mentioned above for PC, it would expand the library of accessible titles beyond what is currently available on Game Pass for PC. Some games never make the jump to Windows 10 and some publishers are only willing to license out games to Game Pass for console. With xCloud on the platform, players would be able to game with their console brethren without issue.

You could actually run an Android emulator and make use of Game Pass, but native support would be best. At least Microsoft isn't shying away from the possibility.
