Starting today, you’ll be able to play more than a dozen Xbox and Xbox 360 games via cloud streaming, Microsoft announced in a blog post. As with other game streaming, the perk is only available to members of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
Cloud streaming first became available last September with an initial launch slate of more than 170 games, playable on an Android device via the Game Pass app. If you have a solid internet (or 5G) connection and a decent mobile controller, it’s actually pretty cool. You’d think games like Halo 5: Guardians and Forza Horizon 4 are meant for 55-inch TVs and vivid 4K displays. Then you play them on the go, and realize the potential of this service.

Today’s news is yet another data point marking a growing divide between the two tiers of Microsoft’s games-on-demand service. For $10 month, you can sign up for Xbox Game Pass, which allows you to download and play games from a Netflix-style library.
