Microsoft is continuing its mission to bring Xbox gaming to every screen. Starting today, Xbox Cloud Gaming is officially rolling out to select LG smart TVs, giving gamers the ability to stream and play their favorite Xbox titles with no console required.
This development marks a major step in Microsoft’s strategy to make Xbox more accessible, offering console-level gaming experiences directly through smart TVs.
Which LG TVs Support the Xbox App?
The Xbox app is now available on:
- 2022 LG OLED TVs
- Select 2023 LG Smart TVs
- Newer LG models and smart monitors running webOS24 or higher
- LG’s portable StanbyME screens (coming soon)
If you own a 2025 LG TV, the app is already integrated into the LG Gaming Portal. For older compatible models, you’ll need to manually download the app from the LG Content Store.
Note: Ensure your TV is updated with the latest firmware to access the Xbox app.
How to Start Playing Xbox Games on LG TVs
To get started with Xbox Cloud Gaming on your LG smart TV:
- Install the Xbox App from the LG Content Store.
- Connect a Bluetooth-enabled controller (e.g., Xbox Wireless Controller).
- Subscribe to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, which includes access to Xbox Cloud Gaming.
- Launch the app and choose from hundreds of games available in the cloud library.
No physical Xbox Series X or S console is needed—just a strong internet connection and a Game Pass Ultimate subscription.
What Does This Mean for Gamers?
With the app now on LG TVs, Xbox Cloud Gaming is expanding beyond traditional consoles and PCs. This move mirrors Microsoft’s earlier launch of the Xbox app on Samsung smart TVs in 2022, further reinforcing the company’s vision that “every screen is an Xbox.”
Whether you’re a casual gamer or a hardcore fan, being able to pick up and play full Xbox titles on a smart TV opens up a whole new level of convenience and accessibility.
As cloud gaming continues to evolve, Xbox Cloud Gaming on LG TVs signals an exciting future where gaming is more flexible, device-agnostic, and accessible than ever. For LG TV owners, it’s time to grab a controller and jump straight into the action with no console needed.
