Microsoft as surprised us today by announcing that xCloud will part of Gamepass Ultimate from September. Gamepass titles will be added to xCloud so this means when Halo Infinite launches later this year you will be able to play it on xCloud.
The full quote about xCloud is: –
You will get more from your Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership. Finally, today we’re announcing that this September, in supported countries, we’re bringing Xbox Game Pass and Project xCloud together at no additional cost for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members. With cloud gaming in Game Pass Ultimate, you will be able to play over 100 Xbox Game Pass titles on your phone or tablet. And because Xbox Live connects across devices, you can play along with the nearly 100 million Xbox Live players around the world. So when Halo Infinite launches, you and your friends can play together and immerse yourselves in the Halo universe as Master Chief—anywhere you go and across devices.
Xbox then followed this up by another blog post saying that they will be showcasing Halo Infinite gameplay.
