What is Cloud Gaming?Ĭloud gaming is a streaming service for video games in which the games are running on a server in a different location and streams them directly on the gamer’s device. However, as cloud gaming services become more popular, they will have a much larger impact on electricity usage. These services allow gamers to play hundreds of games from a variety of devices for one price.
Multiple services already exist for cloud gaming including Playstation Now, Google Stadia, and now even Microsoft is adding a game streaming service to its Xbox Game Pass.
