Microsoft Brings Xbox Cloud Gaming To Steam Deck With Its Edge Browser

Microsoft has now collaborated with Valve to bring Xbox Cloud Gaming, along with Xbox Game Pass, to the recently released Steam Deck handheld gaming console. So now, apart from enjoying various other Xbox Game Studios titles that can natively run on Steam Deck, users will be able to stream Xbox Game Pass titles via a beta version of Microsoft Edge for the Steam Deck. Let’s take a look at the details.

According to a recent Reddit post by a Microsoft Edge Community Manager, Missy Quarry, the company “worked closely with Valve and the Xbox Cloud Gaming team to bring support for Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta) with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate through Microsoft Edge Beta” to Valve’s Steam Deck console. The announcement was confirmed by Catherine Gluckstein, the Head of Product and Strategy at Xbox Cloud Gaming, on Twitter. You can check out the tweet attached right below.
