More than half of these titles are available on PC. You may have noticed from these lists though that there aren’t that many games exclusive to Xbox. There’s even a couple of games from the original Xbox:
What’s interesting is there’s also a few backwards-compatible Xbox 360 titles:
Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age. Halo series, including Master Chief Collection and Halo 5. If your web browser has an ad-blocker, you may need to temporarily disable it in order to create a Microsoft account (I couldn’t create an account with the Brave browser, but I can stream games just fine with this browser after creating an account via Chrome).Īfter successfully creating your account or signed into your existing one, then directing your browser to /play, you should be met with something like this:Īs of writing this, I’ve counted a total of 267 games that are available for streaming. I have been unable to get this to work with Firefox. Of course, Microsoft advertises their Edge browser as being compatible, but Chrome, as well as any other Chromium-based browser, should work. I also would like to emphasize the fact that the service is currently in beta phase, and I’ve no idea when it will come out of said phase. I should note you need to have the Ultimate edition of the game pass in order to use through your browser. Subsequent charges after the first three months is $15/month, but you can cancel any time before then (seems like a relatively painless process). You’ll also need to enter your residential address. You will need a credit card to sign up, as Microsoft will charge $1 (plus tax) upfront for the first three months that you have Game Pass. How does it work? Well, if you haven’t created a Microsoft account already, create one. Initially a invitation-only campaign, any user who creates a Microsoft account can now use Game Pass. That means even Linux and Chromebook users can reap the benefits of playing any game available on Xbox Game Pass through their browser. Microsoft announced earlier this week that, in addition to Windows 10, Xbox consoles, and smartphones/tablets, the Xbox Game Pass is now available through Chrome/Chromium-based web browsers. If you’re frustrated with the burdensome process of trying to obtain a ninth-gen console ( or gpu!) due to the silicon shortage that just never seems to go away, Xbox Game Pass for PC could be your ticket out of that hassle.
