Xbox Game Pass games can now be streamed through mobile devices thanks to xCloud, making it much easier than ever before to play The Master Chief Collection on the toilet. But this is just the start of Microsoft's plans for streaming, and Xbox boss Phil Spencer has indicated in a tweet that streaming will make its way to Game Pass on Xbox and PC, too.

　　Replying to a tweet asking directly whether Game Pass on console and PC would allow for streaming at some point--allowing users to demo a game before committing to a download--Spencer responded saying that they have a plan in the works for this. "It's in the long list of cool things the xCloud team is working on, just a bit further down the list," he said.

　　Now Playing: Microsoft's Secret Weapon For Next-Gen Is Xbox Game Pass

　　Hey @aarongreenberg @XboxP3 any chance this could happen at some point? https://t.co/VYgscHzXRH

　　— The Man About Tech #VypNation (@Vyyyper) October 6, 2020

　　Yes, we want to do this. It's in the long list of cool things the xCloud team is working on, just a bit further down the list. But we want console and PC players to be able to browse as easily as mobile players, it's a good gamepass feature.

　　— Phil Spencer (@XboxP3) October 7, 2020

　　This means that the feature could be a while off yet, but it's at least being planned, and we could eventually see Game Pass streaming on these systems.

　　Microsoft's recent purchase of Bethesda parent company ZeniMax means that they now has access to the company's Orion streaming technology, which could be a large part of their future strategy.

　　Microsoft's next systems, the Xbox Series X and Series S, will release on November 10. If you're looking to pick up either system, or some new Xbox games for the end of the year, check out GameSpot's 2020 Xbox Gift Guide.
