Imagine turning a device that is eligible to read a USB Type-A or Type-C input and turn it into a gaming setup immediately with a plug-in streaming device from Microsoft. Regular LED flat screens, and smart TVs will get a chance to gain a streaming capability already, and it is with the Xbox Keystone that the company confirmed earlier.

However, the only challenge now is bringing a functioning device available for all.

According to a report by Windows Central, Microsoft is still integrating the rumors and talks behind its latest cloud streaming venture that will focus on the device. The Keystone is known to the public as a gadget that will help in streaming, and it is a plug-and-play game streaming platform that will turn any device into a gaming console.

In the streaming device, users can easily connect and freely play any titles they wish to focus on, especially in this world of interconnectedness to streaming platforms. 

Not many companies close in on Xbox for their cloud streaming for games, as others require a console to download their online games.

Xbox Keystone: When Is it Coming from Microsoft? 

Microsoft's statement via Windows Central said it aims for any display device to function as a gaming hub without the console present or purchased by a user. 

According to The Verge, the Keystone is still a device that focuses on talks and information coming from Microsoft. Still, there are no releases or concepts from the company available to the public yet. 

Xbox Cloud's Online Game Streaming

Xbox is one of the top game streaming platforms in the world now, as it is one of the first gaming companies that bring this service via their consoles and PC platforms available for all. The service initially launched last 2021, and the public first saw its features via the iPhone and iPad platforms as it streamed its first 100 games. 

Xbox Cloud Gaming is a service that the public accepted widely in its release, and many people already use the service at this time. According to reports, there are as many as millions in the streaming service, and Xbox already has a ready server that could accommodate as many as one billion streamers across the globe. 

The online cloud service is accessible and easy for everyone to connect to, so long as they have a good internet connection to help their progress. Nowadays, people choose to download and buy games from an online platform, and some avoid buying discs for good. 

This venture is coming with a better streaming device that will help those who cannot freely connect to the browser or install apps may get it with the Keystone.
