Xbox Game Pass Streaming is coming to iOS next year, in a unique fashion

Xbox have announced that they are bringing Xbox Game Pass Streaming to iOS devices in 2021, even without Apple making changes to allow it, instead they will use a web browser.

In Spring 2021, we will take the next step in our journey to reach more players around the world by making cloud gaming as part of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate available on Windows PCs through the Xbox app and browser, and iOS devices through mobile web browser. - Jerret West, CVP, Microsoft Gaming

This simply means that no matter the platform, technically as long as you have a compatible web browser, you could stream the new Halo Infinite, when it is released.

The xCloud Streaming part of Game Pass, is currently in preview here in Australia and I have been lucky enough to enjoy time with it, and it works well, more on it soon though. With it coming to more platforms, the future for Xbox is looking brighter than ever.
