When gamers are playing Xbox Game Pass games on their Android mobile devices, they can connect a Xbox controller to make it a little easier. There are also peripherals that add control inputs that are not unlike a Nintendo Switch. However, if someone wants to just pull out their Android phone and play Game Pass, they may not have these accessories handy. Unfortunately, not every Xbox Game Pass game supports touchscreen controls, but the list is growing, with six more games added to the lineup.
On April 15, Microsoft added six more games to the list of Xbox Game Pass titles that are playable with touchscreen controls on Android. This includes Battle Chasers: Night War, Double Dragon Neon, Wreckfest, Overcooked 2, Killer Queen Black, and Banjo-Kazooie. These games enjoy the numerous others that have already been outfitted with touchscreen controls.
Many more Xbox Game Pass games playable on Android will be getting touchscreen support in the months ahead. Beyond that, fans can expect the Xbox Game Pass cloud games to be available on more mobile devices as well. Microsoft has confirmed that Xbox Game Pass cloud streaming will soon be available to iOS users, though more specific details aren’t available at the time of this writing.
Xbox’s cloud streaming is focused almost entirely on mobile devices right now, but the service could expand to Xbox consoles at some point down the line. In fact, it’s been teased that Microsoft could leverage the power of the cloud to make Xbox Series X exclusive games playable on Xbox One consoles, though it’s unclear if it will actually go through with that. That could potentially cut into Xbox Series X console sales, but Microsoft seems more concerned with getting gamers looped into the Xbox ecosystem, even if it means they’re gaming on mobile devices or PC.
Of course, Xbox Game Pass on PC continues to receive major support from Xbox as well. Just recently, the EA Play games on Xbox Game Pass were made playable on PC, reiterating Microsoft’s commitment to making Xbox Game Pass a desirable subscription on PC just as much as on consoles.
