Cloud gaming showcases impressive technology under optimal conditions, with Microsoft and Nvidia leading the charge through Xbox Game Pass and GeForce Now, respectively.
Despite being competitors, both companies are dedicated to enhancing the PC gaming platform. It’s in this spirit of collaboration that Microsoft has decided to feature games compatible with Nvidia’s streaming service on its own website.
According to a tweet from the official Xbox account, this new functionality is now live on the Microsoft game gallery (as reported by The Verge). When you click the “PLAY with CLOUD” launch button on a game’s profile page, you can choose between Xbox Cloud Gaming (for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers) and GeForce Now.
Though Microsoft’s tweet and support page indicate that the feature went live yesterday, I haven’t seen it enabled on my end. This is surprising, considering I own several PC games via my Microsoft account that are playable on GeForce Now. It’s possible that Microsoft’s backend is still updating, or the feature isn’t visible to me because I currently don’t have Game Pass.
