Apple is WRONG About Xbox Game Streaming

from Rene Ritchie

Microsoft has accused Apple of refusing to allow their upcoming Xbox Game Pass Ultimate service onto the iPhone and iPad App Stores. If you’re not familiar with it, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, formerly Project xCloud, promises to let you stream over 100 Xbox games to your phone or tablet for $15 a month. Essentially, to be the Netflix or Spotify — the TV+ or Apple Music — of games. All you can play with just one monthly price to pay. And Microsoft isn’t the only company pushing a service like this. Far from it. Google, Nvidia, Facebook — basically everyone in games is getting into or wants to get into… this game. And Apple’s having none-of-it, not on the iOS App Store at least. And it’s seriously enraged Microsoft… and a lot of iPhone and iPad users who also want them some Xbox on iOS. So, what’s going on?
