Xbox has announced a new collaboration with Amazon, enabling Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members in over 25 countries to play games directly from the Xbox app on select Amazon Fire TV devices via cloud gaming.
This initiative, starting in July, expands gaming accessibility, allowing users to enjoy a vast library of games without needing a console.
The Xbox app will be available on the Fire TV Stick 4K Max (2023) and Fire TV Stick 4K (2023), priced at $59.99 and $49.99 respectively.
To get started, users need a Fire TV Stick, a Bluetooth-enabled wireless controller, and an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership, which provides instant access to hundreds of games including “Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II,” “Starfield,” “Forza Horizon 5,” and Bethesda’s popular Fallout series.
“At Xbox, we’re committed to bringing the joy and community of gaming to everyone,” said Ashley McKissick, Corporate Vice President of Xbox Experiences and Platforms Engineering.
Compatible controllers include the Xbox Wireless Controller, Xbox Adaptive Controller, PlayStation DualSense, and DualShock 4 controller.
This partnership is part of Xbox’s broader mission to deliver cloud gaming to more devices and players globally.
