App Store rules that have prevented cloud gaming enthusiasts from enjoying the service on iOS devices, and that the company is in "ongoing discussions."

According to Xbox chief Phil Spencer, the team is now "committed to bringing xCloud to all mobile endpoints, including Apple's large ecosystem." No word yet on a release date or when iOS users will finally be able to join the streaming party, but Spencer said of those eager for support on their devices, "You'll know we'll get there."

Xbox game streaming is currently limited to Android devices. Microsoft, Google, and Nvidia were left in limbo when Apple blocked games streaming via the web on iOS. Apple decided earlier this month to slightly change its position to allow individual games from the web, but the policy change is not enough to make xCloud a viable option.

The service officially debuted on September 15 as part of the $14.99/month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, with over 100 games, including "Gears 5" and "Sea of Thieves," available on both Android tablets and phones. and a wide variety of titles for players to enjoy. [But at the time, a Microsoft spokesperson responded to The Verge that the team had "nothing to share about iOS at this time," but reiterated that the "ambition" was to "make cloud gaming available on all devices through Xbox Game Pass." He reiterated.

Microsoft tested xCloud on the iPhone earlier this year by releasing a beta version through its TestFlight app. This allowed testers to experience what xCloud offered on platforms other than Android. Unfortunately, this build was never released to the public due to Apple's restrictions.

For now, there is no general schedule for seeing xCloud on non-Android devices. However, for users looking to purchase a new iPhone (perhaps the upcoming iPhone 12), it may give them enough peace of mind to pre-order without fear that they will not be able to play new Xbox games from the cloud.
