Cloud gaming, Input methods and Compatibility

[astral brook]

Hi.. I need some help.. I'm thinking of gifting my friend an Xbox game pass subscription... But he has a pretty bad pc... I was told that is fine as long as the internet is solid... And he has good wifi so yeah... But he also runs tiny10 and doesn't have an Xbox controller. Would that be a problem to run Microsoft flight simulator on cloud gaming? Or would a PS4 controller work? Since on local msfs you can config keybinds... Does it work the same way for cloud gaming?

Hello there, is his PC available for him to game on and not crash. Also, there is a different type of game pass for computer and the Xbox gamepass may not work.

Cloud Gaming only comes with the top-tier game pass, "Game Pass Ultimate"

As long as the computer has a modern browser and and a solid internet connection of at least 15 meg download speeds, you'll be able to play.

Note that currently Cloud Gaming only supports touchscreens (eg. phones) or bluetooth controllers.

Keyboard & Mouse support is only available to a limited number of subscribers as part of a test.

Oh... Would PS4 controllers work then? Or only Xbox?

Only Bluetooth? What about wired controllers?
