In the announcement (opens in new tab), Microsoft noted that games connected through the Xbox Network (known as Xbox Live until recently) will let gamers play on past save files and play online, too. Microsoft continues to build upon its cloud gaming service, even working on dual-screen support for Android devices when playing select games on Xbox Game Pass. And to iPhone users out there, sorry. You won’t be getting these features yet, as Microsoft is still working on cloud gaming for iOS with a spring 2021 launch window in mind. Currently, there are 16 Xbox and Xbox 360 titles that are playable via the Xbox Game Pass (Beta) app. Hopefully, Microsoft will continue to build on this library. In the meantime, check out what you can play.
