Xbox announced it has partnered with LG to bring Xbox Cloud Gaming to select vehicles in the near future.
"We’re committed to meeting players wherever they are, bringing the joy of gaming into even more places and experiences," said Xbox Marketing vice president Chris Lee. "That’s why we’re excited to announce our latest expansion for Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta).
"Through our collaboration with LG Electronics, we are working to integrate the Xbox experience into select internet-connected vehicles, introducing a new way to bring more of what players love about Xbox into more places."

Gaming On the Move: Entertainment for Every Journey
With the Xbox built into LG’s webOS Automotive Content Platform (ACP), passengers in internet-connected vehicles will be able to stream and play games directly from the Xbox app. Game Pass Ultimate members will soon have instant access to hundreds of games including popular titles like Gears of War: Reloaded, Forza Horizon 5, and upcoming releases like Obsidian Entertainment’s The Outer Worlds 2 (an automotive data plan is required to access streaming services. All services operate in compliance with driving safety regulations).
Already have some favorite Xbox titles in your library? Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can also stream select games they already own, such as Bugsnax, Don’t Starve, Mafia: The Old Country, and more, giving you even more flexibility in the gaming experience. You can find the full list here.
Whether you’re jumping back into an old favorite or discovering something completely new, Xbox Cloud Gaming and LG Electronics transforms your vehicle’s infotainment system into more than just music and movies – it becomes a full entertainment hub. Whether you’re waiting at an EV charging station or trying to entertain your passengers on an extended road trip, pass the time by playing games keeping everyone entertained and making the journey feel more fun.
More Ways to Play, Anywhere You Go
If you’re new to gaming, Xbox Cloud Gaming is a great way to get started. All you need to do is connect a compatible Bluetooth controller, launch the Xbox app from your internet-connected in-vehicle infotainment system, log in to your Xbox Game Pass subscription, and start playing.
Our work with LG is the latest example of Xbox expanding to new places, building on partnerships that already bring Xbox Cloud Gaming to mobile devices, PCs, and TVs. By adding vehicles to the mix, we’re giving players more choice than ever in how they enjoy their games.

I'm not sure how big the demand for this is going to be. If you have short rides within a city, you won't really have time to game that much, and for long voyages, reception and lag will be tremendous. Not to mention car sickness while playing.
Going to have to be very select vehicle ps as very few have screens in the rear seats. Absolutely no way it can be done safely on the main car monitor.
I'm very curious to see how well it works since you need a good internet connection on a consistent basis. I use Xcloud but usually on wifi or I got great 5G service at a specific location. I don't use it on the move very often since it's usually unreliable. Regardless, I do think it's a neat thing to offer.
If someone wants to play in the car they will just play a Switch or Steamdeck type of device. Let's be real here.
You really didn't need to respond to me to say this since my comment is not about popularity.
No it was necessary. Your comment was saying it's worth existing as an option whereas my comment was saying that it's not even worth existing because people will just play Switch or something similar
Your comprehension skills need some work.
The key is that the person doesn't have to have those devices. You do not have to travel with those devices if the system in the car is reliable. You also always have the system in the car without having to remember to take your device. If you were a parent, you do not have to remember this stuff. The kids in the back can easily just grab their controller and start to play. If their game is on multiple systems and saved to the cloud, it can start right where they left off. You are missing a big useability situation here.
A used Switch is about, 100$ these days? If you wanted to game in the car you'd just get one of those?
