Xbox Cloud Gaming is a Microsoft service that allows us to enjoy games in the cloud or remotely both from the Xbox Game Pass service and from our own console plugged in at home. A platform that we can use from Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, a computer, mobile phones and tablets. Now, depending on which one we are using, we will have to connect one way or another.
The browser, a centerpiece
The thing is, one of the key elements of Xbox Cloud Gaming is the browser, because for many occasions it will be the front door to the entire catalog contained in the platform, so it is necessary to remember exactly which of them and which version is the one that we will have to install. Do not forget that it is, in particular on PC and Mac, or on iOS and iPad, that these requirements are concentrated, since on Xbox as on Android, these are shortcuts inside the screen of each title in the Microsoft Store or through a application portable.
If you have a PC with at least Windows 10, you will first need to meet the requirement for Have the operating system updated to version 20H2 or later, which includes Windows 11 and, of course, access to the service either with Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome with the latest of the most modern versions. In this way, by pairing a gamepad with the computer, you will be able to log in and start your gaming days by continuing the game that you bring from any other site.
In the case of Android 6 (or later), you can also use, as in the case of the PC, one of the two browsers with a Chromium core such as Edge and Chrome in their most recent editions, but do not remember that you have a application specific available in the Mountain View Play Store. By the way, if you have a Chromebook (laptops with ChromeOS) You can only access the cloud game with the official Google browsersince that of Microsoft is not, even today, fully usable within the platform.
Apple as always, to his ball
In the case of Apple devices, things are different since You won’t be able to use Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge as they are not, at this time, compatible with Xbox Cloud Gaming. If you want to access this game in the cloud, you will need to have the latest version of Safari, among those released for iOS 14.4 and iPadOS 14.4. No precedent will not even be possible to enter connect us with our Xbox ID.
If you have a Mac computer, the same thing will happen to you as with the iPhone and iPad since you can only use Safari to access the official Xbox Cloud Gaming page from the most recent versions and obviously if you have macOS Ventura you will be able to play in the cloud without major inconveniences. In all cases, and with the exception of versions designed to be used with touch control from the screen, you will need to pair a wireless gamepad (the Xbox one is the best) to control everything without problems.
