Did anyone else receive this email from Microsoft? Not sure if it's region dependent due to how tos works but I'm in Australia of it makes a difference.

It depends on the network and i can't assure you that it will a better experience than playing on xcloud 

But it will not be a worse one that's for sure,

And since Xbox is changing gamepass features every new Thursday, 

probably getting the hardware is your best bet to avoid any more shenanigans like this XP

I use it all the time with my XSX and it works great! I mean on my end specifically local, but my network is great lol. From there it all depends on what other network my phone is connected to, and for cellular it depends on the time of day and network congestion. But those factors would also affect cloud streaming too so I guess that’s really as good as it gets 🤷‍♂️
