E3 2018 - Microsoft is working on a streaming service to bring console quality games to smartphones
Interesting stuff...
Microsoft's conference was actually pretty strong last night and just before it closed it dropped one piece of news that really caught our eye - a streaming service to bring its games to all sorts of devices, including mobile phones.
Barely any time was spent to elaborate Microsoft's plans on how exactly a streaming service would deliver such games to you iPhone or Android device, but it's quite a promise.
"The world of gaming is on a historic growth path, where the increasing number of gamers is met with the increasing creative power of game developers. In this significant moment we are challenging ourselves - where can we take gaming next?" said Head of Xbox Phil Spencer.
"--Our Cloud engineers are building a game-streaming network to unlock console-quality gaming on any device. Not only that, we're dedicated to perfecting your experience everywhere you want to play - on your Xbox, your PC, or your phone."
We're still in the dark about prices, what games we could expect, and what the requirements for such a thing would be, but we'll definitely be keeping a close eye on things.
