Microsoft reveals that the TV stick device that supports the Xbox streaming game service will not be launched with the original design

Microsoft earlier confirmed that it has revealed in the past that it will create a device similar to a TV stick that can correspond to a streaming game service, which is code-named Keystone, but also revealed that this device may not be launched with the original design, and may add more user experience.

It is not yet clear whether the device is still planned to be launched, and what features and experiences are planned to be added in the future, and Microsoft’s statement seems to indicate that the device may not be launched.

In fact, Microsoft’s consideration may have its reasons. After all, although the streaming game service mainly completes most of the computing through the cloud, in order to have a better game experience, in addition to stable network transmission quality, if the terminal device can handle enough early computing performance, will improve a smoother streaming gaming experience.

This part can basically be done through Xbox game consoles, current mainstream mobile phones, tablets or PC devices. Judging from the computing performance corresponding to the new high-end smart TVs, it may still meet the needs, but in the case of TV stick products Operational performance may be a bit unsatisfactory. On the other hand, if a TV stick that is sufficient for playing streaming game services is launched, it may also affect the sales of some Xbox game consoles, which may be why Microsoft adjusts the TV stick product launch plan.

Although Google can already play Stadia services through Chromecast devices, after all, it does not sell game console products at the same time, so there are not so many concerns.
