Players can pick up where they left off in a game, no matter where they are.

Microsoft has also partnered with third party hardware accessory companies like Razer, PowerA, 8BitDo, and Nacon to develop a bunch of brand new accessories designed specifically for cloud gaming. This ranges from items like phone clips, travel controllers, and much more. Microsoft also went on to confirm that other options like the Xbox one Bluetooth Wireless andPlayStation DualShock 4 controllers will also work. A point of emphasis that the company has tried to highlight over the past few days, letting players continue to use accessories across multiple platforms.
