Starting today, mouse and keyboard support on Xbox Cloud Gaming is available through Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome and from the Xbox app for Windows. It has not been confirmed when this feature will be extended to the rest of users or if it will include support for smart TVs and monitors, among other platforms.
According to Neowin, members of the Xbox Insider and PC Gaming Preview programs also have access to new social features and a revamped user interface. These include viewing user profiles and their achievements, the ability to send messages, and the option to launch games directly from the social panel.
