We feel that the end of the year and the Game Awards are approaching: video game news is quite dense and teasers from industry players are multiplying. With the object on his Fallout shelf, Phil Spencer of Xbox enters the dance, since it could be the KeyStone project , a peripheral or a machine dedicated to Game Pass cloud services.
A cloud-gaming dongle or machine
Rumored for a while, this new medium would only be used to launch games in the cloud through the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate service . Many XGP games are accessible "in the cloud" and this is surely one of the best offers in this still somewhat niche market. You can see it slightly on the top of Phil Spencer's shelf, but you can't make out the shape of the object correctly. On the other hand, we can note that among the many Fallout goodies stands the box of the famous portable cloud gaming console from Logitech: an additional clue pointing to an Xbox of the same type? We'll still have to wait to find out.
Philou and the teasers
The boss of Microsoft's Xbox division is a fan of discreet teasers, to such an extent that it has become a small tradition at each of his official appearances at conferences and other live announcements. Each time, the American businessman takes care to come back with a flocked t-shirt with the logo or the image of a known game. That's how the return of Battletoads was most quietly announced. A few months ago, PS did not hesitate to display a t-shirt with the same Craig, the famous enemy of the first video gameplay demo of Halo Infinite.
