Playing games on the new Xbox app made for TVs feels like a big<\/em> deal. There\u2019s no console and no hidden HDMI streaming device. Yet, in my brief hands-on demo, games like Halo Infinite <\/em>and Forza Horizon 5<\/em> loaded quickly and \u2014 most importantly \u2014 they played well with both Xbox and<\/em> PlayStation 5 wireless controllers. And if you aren\u2019t a Game Pass subscriber, you\u2019ll still be able to jump into Fortnite<\/em> immediately through the app for free after you sign in with a Microsoft account.<\/p>\n

The app aims to provide a console-like experience to people who don\u2019t want the cost and cruft of buying and setting up a console. It lets you pair a Bluetooth headset to hear audio and chat with Xbox friends, and Xbox save data gets synced over the cloud, letting you pick up on the TV where you last left off. <\/p>\n

You\u2019ll be able to experience it starting June 30th \u2014 that is, if you own a model from one of Samsung\u2019s fleet of 2022 televisions<\/a> (including the M8 Smart Monitor<\/a> and non-flagship Smart TVs above model BU8000). The Xbox app is launching first within Samsung\u2019s Gaming Hub, a new section of Samsung\u2019s TV operating system that gives games the center stage alongside media streaming apps. <\/p>\n

In the Samsung Gaming Hub, you can pair controllers and headphones, and easily jump into \u201crecently played\u201d titles.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Microsoft is aiming to deliver native 1080p streaming at 60 frames per second, and Samsung is using upscaling to make the footage look better. Wiring ethernet into your TV is, of course, highly recommended to get the best possible fidelity, but during my demo, the TV that I was playing on was connected to hotel Wi-Fi and doing a pretty good job. If you play wirelessly, Microsoft recommends connecting to a 5GHz router, which most routers are capable of broadcasting.<\/p>\n
