Microsoft Announces 10-Year Partnership with EE to Bring Cloud Gaming to Xbox
The company wants to deliver Activision Blizzard games to EE customers.
Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer announced that the company signed a 10-year partnership deal with EE, a mobile network operator company, to explore cloud gaming and "bring PC games built by Activision Blizzard, following the acquisition, and Xbox to EE customers".
"We are committed to bring more games to more people, however they choose to play," he said on Twitter.
It is unclear how the deal will work as EE offers access to an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription in the UK but doesn't have its own cloud gaming service.
“As part of our ambition to be the number one destination for gamers, we are naturally reviewing many exciting new areas for how we can evolve our customers gaming experiences with cloud gaming services being just one part of this,” EE spokesperson James Auterson told The Verge. “We have nothing further to announce on our future plans at the moment.”
Microsoft has been working on cloud deals for some time now, partnering with NVIDIA, Boosteroid, and Ubitus. It seems like we will see PC games on Xbox Cloud Gaming with EE's help soon.
