Xbox Cloud Gaming is also compatible with select LG and Samsung Smart TVs as well as Amazon Fire TV Sticks or Fire TV Cube, the Windows-maker said in a press note on Tuesday, November 11. India is the 29th country where Xbox Cloud Gaming is available.
A few of the titles available on Xbox Cloud Gaming are Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, Hollow Knight: Silksong, Detective Dotson, The Palace on the Hill, and Raji: An Ancient Epic. Players need to have a compatible Bluetooth-enabled wireless controller, a high-speed internet connection and an Xbox Game Pass subscription in order to play these titles via the cloud gaming service.
“With Xbox Cloud Gaming, players have other benefits too, such as the ability to play games they own from the Stream your own game collection across supported devices, and connect to play with others from a shared library of games, whether they’re on the other side of the world or sitting right next to you,” Microsoft said.
“Dedicated support channels and in-app guidance make it easy for new players to jump in,” it added.

Controllers like the Xbox Wireless Controller, Xbox Adaptive Controller, PlayStation DualSense, or DualShock 4 controller are all compatible with Xbox Cloud Gaming, as per the gaming giant.
