Microsoft is set to significantly enhance the gaming experience by integrating its cloud gaming service, Xbox Game Pass, into LG televisions by 2025. Announced by Lori Wright, the company's VP, this development allows gamers to play a selection of titles directly on their TVs without the need for a console.
To utilize this service, users will need a stable internet connection, a compatible controller, and an active Game Pass subscription. This move not only simplifies the gaming process but also broadens accessibility, allowing more players to engage with Xbox's extensive game library.
For those without compatible LG TVs, alternatives like the Amazon Fire Stick can be used to access the service, as well as Android TVs through the Xbox Game Pass app. Additionally, the latest update to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate introduces the ability to stream games not included in the catalog, enhancing the user experience with over 50 titles available for cloud streaming.
With various subscription options, including the Ultimate plan at €17.99 per month, Xbox aims to democratize gaming, making it available to a global audience on their chosen devices. This partnership with LG signifies a pivotal step towards a more integrated and user-friendly gaming ecosystem.
