Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer has revealed that the company's Xbox game streaming console is now years away." Speaking at The Wall Street Journal's Tech Live conference yesterday, Spencer discussed the Xbox game streaming device, Keystone, that we saw appear on his shelf recently.
Keystone was the codename of something we were incubating internally, which was ... a streaming console, so there's no local gameplay, low-cost, plug it into a TV, and you'd be able to stream Xbox games," said Spencer. In the late spring, we pivoted to working with Samsung. We put an app on Samsung TVs that let you play Xbox games, and I still have the prototype; it sits on the shelf behind my computer."
