Microsoft plans to test its streaming service, Project xCloud in three regions.

„Register for Project xCloud (Preview) – you will need a Microsoft account to register. If you don’t have one, you can create an account for free during registration. We’ll email you with next steps – of you are chosen to begin the technical preview, we will send you an acceptance email with next steps. The first round of the technical preview starts in October 2019. We will only be accepting a limited number of participants in the initial test but will admit new players throughout the year.

Get the Xbox Game Streaming (Preview) app – once you get accepted, install the app to your Android device, then go to the Project xCloud section of the app and log in with the account you used to register for the preview. Pair your Xbox Wireless Controller – follow the steps in the app to pair your Xbox Wireless Controller with Bluetooth and Android device. Optionally, you can choose to clip the controller to your phone. Go play and share your feedback with us – select any game in the cloud library and start playing on your Android device. Provide feedback on the app to shape the future of game streaming,” Xbox.com writes.

System requirements: An Android phone with at least Android 6.0 and Bluetooth 4.0+, a Bluetooth Xbox Wireless controller, 5GHz Wi-Fi or mobile data connection with at least 10 Mbit download speed, and the Xbox Game Streaming App (Preview). „Test streaming console-quality titles from the cloud—no waiting for downloads. During the preview, you don’t need to own games or a console. We’ll be adding more games over time for you to discover and play,” Microsoft says. Games? Gears 5, Sea of Thieves, Killer Instinct.

The three lucky countries are the United States, the United Kingdom, and South Korea. You can register to the preview here.
