Project xCloud has hit a major milestone ahead of public testing.
Microsoft's upcoming game streaming service Project xCloud just achieved a major milestone, and should now be available to more Xbox employees for internal testing. As reported by Xbox chief Phil Spencer on Twitter, the xCloud team shipped a new "Take Home" build, which should enable more Xbox internal teams to get their hands on the nascent streaming service. Up until now, xCloud testing was limited, although there have been a few high-level employees using xCloud in the wild, including Spencer himself.
Spencer followed up to reiterate xCloud's planned public testing phase, scheduled to arrive later this year. Presumably, the test will be limited in scope as Microsoft rolls out Xbox One-based server blades across to Microsoft's datacentres across the globe, undoubtedly starting with North American markets. You can expect to see Project xCloud in greater detail at E3 2019, either during the Xbox keynote or during the festivities in early June.
