Much has been said about the different obstacles that the different streaming video game services have encountered during their intention to launch their platform within Apple's mobile ecosystem, obstacles that, despite the fact that Apple reduced them, still not enough for these platforms.
The solution they have adopted is to use the native iOS browser, Safari, a solution that has been possible thanks to Amazon, who has worked with Apple engineers so that the browser offers native support for controls on Amazon Luna, the video game streaming platform by Jeff Bezos.
A few weeks ago, the head of the Xbox division announced that this was the only possible way to offer xCloud, in Apple's mobile ecosystem, without announcing an estimated launch date.
Finally, Microsoft has finally announced the date on which this launch will occur. Will be on March 2021Yes, it will initially be in beta, so it is likely that we will have to wait another month to fully enjoy this platform.
The latest streaming video platform that is now officially available on iOS es GeForce Now, a platform that as we can see on its website, and confirming previous rumors, will include Fortnite among its titles (with free access without time limitation according to rumors) which would mean the return of Epic Games to the Apple ecosystem without having to go through again through the App Store and pay the corresponding 30% to the Cupertino-based company for each purchase made in the game.
Regarding the launch of Stadia on iOS, for now the company announced a few weeks ago that the launch was close, although can now be played through an alternative browser which hit the App Store a few weeks ago.
