Xbox PC App Expands Own-Game Cloud Streaming, Cross-Device Play

Microsoft's July update for the Xbox PC app introduces several new features aimed at enhancing flexibility and convenience for gamers. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can now stream over 250 owned games directly from the cloud without extra downloads, including console-only titles, expanding the "Stream Your Own Game" library by 27 new titles.
