Microsoft has stopped mincing words, and in a statement shared with Gizmodo, claims that Apple is entirely to blame for the lack of cloud gaming apps and subscription services on iOS. As we’ve reported repeatedly, there’s no option to enjoy Stadia, Nvidia GeForce, or Microsoft’s own Project xCloud on iOS devices. In the past, Microsoft and Google have both demurred when Gizmodo has asked them about this, while Nvidia told Gizmodo to “ask Apple” when we queried back in January. When I spoke with Microsoft in May, the company pointed out that there was a beta for Project xCloud, its streaming service, available for iOS users. That beta was distributed via TestFlight, an Apple-owned service for developers to distribute beta software to select iOS users. TestFlight betas are frequently temporary, and the period for the Project xCloud beta ended yesterday. At the time, Microsoft expressed optimism that Project xCloud and other cloud gaming services would eventually make their way to iOS.
