Phil Spencer, head of Xbox, has teased a new tier for Xbox Game Pass, as well as hinting that TV streaming sticks may be coming to its xCloud service.
As The Verge reports, Spencer spoke about the future of the Xbox ecosystem and the potential for additional Game Pass tiers in an interview with Stratechery (paywall).
"I think you're going to see lower-priced hardware as part of our ecosystem when you think about streaming sticks and other things that somebody might want to just go plug into their TV and go play via xCloud," Spencer says.
The head of Xbox goes on to say the streaming stick could be included in the Game Pass subscription to give you the ability to stream xCloud games to your TV. Spencer also teases a new tier of the Game Pass, which may potentially be called "Xbox Game Pass Platinum", and would provide you with guaranteed access to new hardware.
Xbox has been promoting Game Pass alongside the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, and the subscription continues to expand with the recent news that EA Play subscriptions will be included in Game Pass on November 10 at no additional cost.
