Experience Cloud Gaming with xCloud on Mac OS

Microsoft's xCloud service has finally arrived on Mac OS, allowing gamers to play a wide range of games without the need for a dedicated gaming console. The launch comes shortly after the service went into an invite-only beta test in April and brings several exciting features to the table.

To get started with xCloud on your Mac, you'll need to make sure that ad-blocking software is turned off. To do this, navigate to the 'Block ads on – This website' switch and toggle it from blue to gray. Next, click the AdBlock Plus icon in the browser extension area in the upper right-hand corner, then refresh the page or click the button below to continue.

Once you've done this, you'll be able to access xCloud by clicking on the AdBlock icon and selecting 'Pause on this site' and then 'Always'. With xCloud, you'll have access to over 100 games, including popular titles like Doom, Outriders, and MLB The Show 21.

One of the key features of xCloud is its ability to stream at high quality. Powered by custom Xbox Series X hardware, xCloud will support 1080p streaming at up to 60 fps given a fast enough Internet connection. This means that you'll be able to play your favorite games with minimal lag and maximum performance.

In addition to its impressive streaming capabilities, xCloud also allows for wireless controller support. On Mac OS, you can use Bluetooth or wired controllers to play your games, while iOS users can utilize their device's touch controls or third-party controllers.

On PC, xCloud is accessible via Edge or Google Chrome, while Mac and iOS users will need to use Safari to access the service. According to a blog post from Microsoft, xCloud is now widely available for all Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members using Windows 10 PCs, macOS computers, or iOS devices such as iPhones and iPads.

In related news, Ubisoft has removed a GoldenEye 007 remake in Far Cry 5 that took 1,400 hours to create. This move highlights the importance of cloud gaming in allowing gamers to access a wide range of content without the need for dedicated hardware.

For those wishing to learn more about xCloud, you can head over to Microsoft's website to find out more information and get started with the service. With its impressive streaming capabilities and wireless controller support, xCloud is set to revolutionize the way we play games on our devices.
