For gamers, this means endless play of full-fidelity gaming experiences without having to worry about streaming, bandwidth or connectivity issues.

There are a bunch of games coming to the library soon, including new ID@Xbox games. These, plus the Halo Infinite Multiplayer Beta, honestly make me feel like I need to take another look at my November gaming schedule and reprioritize. There’s a lot to cover, so let’s jump in!
