Microsoft is currently developing a 'Netflix for games,' and it goes into beta later this year. But we got to try the new service early!
When the fully streamed version of Project xCloud goes live, it will cost something and will likely come with a Netflix-style library.For a monthly fee, Netflix offers subscribers an instant library of content. Some of that content is produced by Netflix, and some isn't. You don't need to download any of the content — it just streams directly to your device.
Project xCloud may be the first to actually deliver a subscription-based video game streaming service with an instant library, à la Netflix. "There's paying for access, and then there's paying for a library of games," he said."And the Game Pass component is really critical, because you want to have access to hundreds of games that you can go play. That is more your Netflix-type example."
