“As a company, Microsoft is fully geared towards games,” says Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. The group presents plans for gaming via TV app.
Redmond – Microsoft wants to use an app to turn the television into a game console. All you need is a controller and a fast internet connection – because the games actually run on Microsoft’s servers in the network.
Microsoft is also working on its own streaming devices for this cloud gaming, with which you can completely do without a console, it said in a blog entry.
Microsoft initially did not provide any information on how quickly the TV app would be available. You are working with manufacturers of television sets.
The current Xbox console, which launched in the fall, remains difficult to come by given global semiconductor shortages. However, Microsoft – just like Google and the graphics card specialist Nvidia, for example – relies on cloud gaming over the Internet in addition to the console business.
