How to Stream and Play Xbox One Games on Windows 10 PCs and Tablets


Last week Microsoft announced that its much touted game streaming feature is now available for public use. What this means is, you can stream and play your Xbox One games such as Halo: The Master Chief Collection, and Forza Horizon 2, to a PC or tablet running Windows 10. To do this you’ll need a PC or tablet with Windows 10 with the latest version of the Xbox app and of course an Xbox One. Streaming has its advantages, such as allowing you to pick up where you left off on your Xbox One, even when your TV is in use by friends or family.

Now you need to set it up on your Windows 10 PC or tablet:

  1. In the Xbox app on Windows 10, select Connect, choose Add a device from the menu on the left side of the app, then select your Xbox One console.

If you want complete control of your Xbox One via PC, you can select Game Streaming in the Home section of the Xbox One app. You’ll need the latest version of the Xbox app on your Windows 10 PC or tablet to get game streaming to work. A notification will appear on your Xbox One, stating that a game streaming session was started by a specific user. This means you can’t stream a game to your PC and game on the console at the same time. During game streaming, the Xbox One console will appear “in use” as though the person streaming was in the room. That’s all you need to know about streaming your Xbox One games to Windows 10.
