Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is still the most compelling package out there with more than 400 cloud games, but it’s more expensive than Luna at $15 per month. Google Stadia is a better option for folks who would rather buy their games a la carte, and offers some newer blockbusters like Cyberpunk 2077 and Resident Evil Village. How it compares: Luna is one of the best values in cloud gaming in terms of sheer affordability, with the Luna+ plan getting you a very impressive 100-plus games for just $6 per month.

Microsoft’s head of Xbox, Phil Spencer, has recently committed to bringing full PC games to the Xbox through the company’s Xbox Cloud Gaming (xCloud) service. It’s not the most ideal experience on the Xbox right now because the virtual keyboard appears when you click and latency isn’t great for multiplayer games. What makes this all the more interesting is that the Edge browser on Xbox also supports mouse and keyboard input, so you can play certain games that don’t even have gamepad support.
