Microsoft's next-generation console strategy is clear. The Xbox Series X will be the most powerful console of the generation, and Redmond will put all the meat into it. But more than that, one of the workhorse will be the services, where the ubiquitous Xbox Game Pass and the future of the streaming game, xCloud, have emerged.
The idea of xCloud, for those who don't already know what it is, is to be able to play Xbox games wherever you want and on the tool you want. It doesn't matter whether it's a cell phone, tablet, smart TVs or streaming devices, such as Google Chromecast, Apple TV or Amazon Stick Fire.
XCloud is coming to Amazon Stick Fire
And talking about the Amazon service, today we learned that xCloud can already be used by itself. As we see in the user's Twitter @ExtremeConsoles, the xCloud app is now available to download and test the Microsoft service. In this case, we will only need to connect the remote controller to the device via Bluetooth and start playing

Of course, as is the case with mobile devices, this option is currently available in countries designated for xCloud Beta. Spain is currently unable to test it, although we have official evidence that a beta should arrive in Europe from the project in early 2020.
However, in Xbox Generation we brought you a tutorial on how to test xCloud in any country in the world, whether it's in beta candidates or not. You can see it here.
