This is exactly what I called...... This is where Xbox is about to kill shit..
Microsoft Will Bring Xbox Series X|S Exclusives to Xbox One via Cloud Gaming
Microsoft finds new ways to extend Xbox One's lifespan.
Microsoft has announced that it intends on expanding the
Xbox One lifespan by implementing its cloud gaming service onto consoles, meaning you will soon be able to use Microsoft's eighth-gen console to play
Xbox Series X/
S games.
As noted in
an Xbox Wire post, Microsoft confirmed that it would also use Xbox Cloud Gaming (xCloud) to allow Xbox One owners to play newer Xbox games without buying a gaming PC or a Series X/S console.
"For the millions of people who play on Xbox One consoles today, we are looking forward to sharing more about how we will bring many of these next-gen games, such as
Microsoft Flight Simulator, to your console through Xbox Cloud Gaming, just like we do with mobile devices, tablets, and browsers," Xbox Wire's Will Tuttle said in the post.
The announcement of Microsoft leveraging its Xbox Cloud Gaming services provides more options for people to play Xbox's titles. This would, in theory, allow Xbox One owners to play upcoming 2022 releases like
Starfield and
Redfall, both of which are Xbox Series X/S console exclusives on their nearly eight-year-old console.
Microsoft has yet to say when it plans to make Xbox Cloud Gaming available on Xbox One consoles. Still, the news is not surprising as Microsoft made it clear that it was planning to
build a global ecosystem that would see the Xbox experience on things such as
TVs and streaming sticks and not limit itself entirely to specific hardware.
The nearly eight-year-old console's lifespan will be extended by at least one year thanks to cloud gaming.
