For Microsoft, the cloud service is something very important, as it has already shown with Xbox Cloud Gaming, which is why have announced
Those from Redmond have not hesitated to put their sights on this company that boasts of having more than four million users, which has led it to establish a ten-year agreement. This will entail that all Xbox titles on PC and Activision Blizzard titles
Of course, for this the acquisition of Activision Blizzard by Microsoft must first be closed, but when the Call of Duty saga is fulfilled it will become available on this platform, thus exceeding more than 150 million additional players, along with any game developed by the teams at Xbox Game Studios.
In another order of things, Boosteroid works in a similar way to Nvidia’s GeForce Now service, so that users can play any title they have purchased in the cloud, either from the browser, on your PC, Linux, Android or Mac. This is how he wanted to express Phil Spencerhead of Xbox, what this alliance means:
We believe in the power of games to bring people together. That’s why Xbox is committed to giving everyone more ways to play their favorite games, across all devices. Bringing Xbox games for PC to Boosteroid members, including Activision Blizzard titles like Call of Duty once the deal closes, is yet another step in making that vision a reality.
For his part, Ivan ShvaichenkoCEO of Boosteroid, wanted to show the benefits of his platform that has been in operation since 2017 and has not prevented it from continuing to grow in recent months, despite the war and the damage they have suffered from the attack by the Russian army:
Boosteroid shares Microsoft’s vision of bringing games to as many people, places, and platforms as possible. For a long time, our goal has been to give gamers the opportunity to enjoy their favorite titles on whatever device is at hand. Today’s announcement is another step in this direction. Additionally, with our Ukraine-based development team, we appreciate Microsoft’s continued commitment to Ukraine, and we will work together on an initiative that supports our local game development community to further invest in the country’s economic recovery.
