Xbox has become an expansive platform, its games becoming playable on a variety of platforms and devices. While Microsoft has put work into making Xbox games playable on PC, in a change of fate, Xbox can now play PC games through GeForce Now and the console's web browser.

The past couple of years of seen Microsoft devote itself to broadening Xbox's reach beyond a traditional console to other platforms like PC and mobile. This expansion has been successful through Xbox's streaming services like Game Pass and xCloud Remote Play, making the games people adore playable in many more places. Nvidia GeForce Now is a streaming service functioning similarly to the combination of Game Pass and xCloud Remote Play, where users can stream their PC game libraries to their phones or other computers. A recent GeForce Now store leak revealed dozens of rumored and potentially in-development titles, sparking speculation across the industry.

As originally covered by Tom Warren of The Verge, many PC games are finally playable on Xbox through GeForce Now and Microsoft Edge. Thanks to an update today released by Nvidia, players can finally steam games to Microsoft Edge, which is the built-in internet browser for the Xbox family of consoles. The browser on Xbox supports keyboard and mouse input, making PC exclusive games that lack controller functionality, actually playable on the Xbox, although as Warren shows, the results can be imprecise. Game Pass offers many games for both Xbox and PC, but this development will make some formerly PC exclusives available on Xbox.

Warren demonstrates GeForce Now streaming on Xbox in the above video. By logging into their GeForce Now account on the Edge browser, the library of games becomes immediately accessible, if a bit finnicky to control. Counter Strike: Global Offensive is a game that demands precision, making it a good example to show the keyboard and mouse functionality of the Edge browser. However, as the video shows, both a traditional mouse cursor and the Edge specific cursor can both be visible at times, the system not properly tracking both of them unfortunately.

While this development may not be the best experience in its current (and really early) form, it is nonetheless a fascinating new capability of the Xbox family of consoles. For games that require highly precise movement and actions, the latency of streaming GeForce Now makes this not a good platform to play those titles. However, potentially more laidback games like those focusing on narratives or simple gameplay mechanics may benefit from this feature on Xbox, though one might wonder why the title isn't already available on Xbox to begin with. There are many PC games that still aren't available on consoles, making this a step in the right direction for Xbox.
