If you have been a Xbox fan or a customer, you must be aware of the Xbox Game Streaming service that lets you stream titles at a monthly fee. Now, this supposed Stadia rival has reached Windows 10 PCs. However, there is a catch. As mentioned by Ars Technica, the Windows version of this service quietly leaked in late 2020 but is now making rounds ever since people started sharing it on Reddit and YouTube. It is not for sure if Microsoft is aware of this and has blocked the access for this Windows version yet or not.

The method mentioned in the report requires you to access and download a Windows app that is buried in the Microsoft database. Then you would have to use a one-time unlock phrase to get it working. As tested by the website, the steps seem to be “simple and safe enough.”
