"By adding over a billion devices as a path to playing in the Xbox ecosystem, we envision a seamless experience for all types of players; whether it's playing Minecraft Dungeons with your Xbox friends using touch controls on an iPhone, or jumping into a Destiny 2: Beyond Light strike on a Surface Pro when you have a break between meetings," the company said in a statement on Wednesday.

As for iOS, Microsoft will launch cloud gaming through web browsers exclusively due to restrictive App Store rules.
