PALO ALTO, U.S. -- Games for Microsoft's Xbox systems will soon be streaming on Samsung Electronics smart televisions, with no console required, under a newly announced partnership expected to take cloud gaming into overdrive.
The Xbox app will first arrive June 30 on the Gaming Hub, a feature initially launching the same day on 2022 Samsung smart TVs. Paying subscribers to the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate service will be able to enjoy more than 300 cloud-compatible console titles via the new service. Nonsubscribers will have access to the wildly popular combat game Fortnite, for example, via free accounts.
