Today Microsoft announced that the Project xCloud beta will be launching as part of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate on September 15th. It sounds like Project xCloud will only be available on Android devices for the foreseeable future, which means those of you who plan on streaming games for the service will need an Android phone or tablet and a controller to go along with it. Microsoft today detailed a number of upcoming controllers intended for Project xCloud gaming, which will all be available under the “Designed for Xbox” banner. The Razer Kishi Universal Mobile Gaming Controller is one we already knew about, as it launched earlier in the summer. Our review of the controller found it to be one of the best controllers for Android gaming, as the it can expand to flank the ends of your device not entirely unlike a Nintendo Switch. The controller also offers pass through charging so you can keep your battery charged as you play. There don’t seem to be any major differences between the standard Razer Kishi and the Designed for Xbox model, save for the addition of Xbox buttons and the fact that the latter comes with a 14-day trial membership to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. The Kishi is available now in select countries and can be found at the Microsoft Store for $99.
