Mar 15, 2021 A Reddit user has shared a new workaround that lets users stream and play Xbox Game Pass games on M1 Macs. Thanks to Android Studio’s support for ARM images on M1 Macs, users can emulate an. Cris Tales Xbox Game Pass. Last month, Cris Tales was released for Xbox Game Pass. The game has a nostalgic presentation as a turn-based RPG inspired by the past years. Offering a fantastic time-lapse mechanic with exploration and combat, Cris Tales is a great indie game with a hard-working team and definitely worth your time.
Cyan, headquartered in Spokane, Wash., announced Tuesday that its latest remake of the original Mystis planned for release on Aug. 26.

This new Myst rebuilds the original 1993 PC game from the ground up with the Unreal Engine, adding new art, sound effects, interactive elements, more accessibility options, and an optional mode that randomizes the game’s puzzles. It was originally announced 11 months ago, and was planned then to be initially released for the Oculus Quest in late 2020.
In Myst, you play as an unnamed silent protagonist who finds a magical book, entitled Myst, which transports you to an island of the same name with no obvious way back. In order to find a way home, you have to explore the island, solve its various puzzles, and use other “linking books” to travel to even more distant worlds.
Like many of Cyan’s recent releases, Myst 2021 has been made with virtual reality in mind, and will initially be available on both the Oculus desktop app and the Quest headset. Customers who buy one Oculus version will also receive access to the other for no additional cost.
Alternatively, Myst will be available in 2D versions on release day for Windows, MacOS, and on the Xbox Game Pass, where it’ll be playable on both console and PC. Myst will be available on other platforms in the future, though Cyan has offered no details thereof.
Myst was the best-selling PC game of all time between 1993 and 2002, and is widely credited with encouraging the consumer adoption of the CD-ROM drive. Myst was also one of the 80 games chosen by the Smithsonian in 2012 to feature in its traveling exhibit “The Art of Videogames.” Myst was created by brothers Rand and Robyn Miller, who currently run Cyan.
Depending on how you count them, 2021’s Myst is either the third or fourth remake of the original game, following the 2000 update Masterpiece Edition, 2000’s realMyst, and 2014’s Unity-powered realMyst: Masterpiece Edition, which was originally made to celebrate Myst‘s 20th anniversary. Players who are interested in checking out the original Myst on modern computers are encouraged by Cyan to pick up the 2000 Masterpiece Edition on Steam or GOG.
The primary marquee feature for 2021’s Myst is its VR compatibility, which brings it in line with many of Cyan’s other recent projects, such as its VR-focused publishing imprint Cyan Ventures.

Myst‘s initial success led to the creation of a multimedia franchise, which includes four sequels, two spin-offs including the MMO Myst Online, a series of novels, and the annual fan convention Mysterium. You can also point to many recently-made first-person adventure games, such as Gone Home, Dear Esther, Tacoma, and What Remains of Edith Finch, as Myst‘s spiritual descendants.
Cyan announced in mid-2019 that it had sold the film and TV rights for Myst to Village Roadshow for further development, which proceeded to hire Ashley Edward Miller (Fringe, Andromeda,X-Men: First Class) in April 2020 to head the adaptation. There’s been no word on the project since, although Miller is reasonably active on social media, so he probably didn’t get trapped inside a linking book. Fingers crossed.

The next original game project from Cyan is its upcoming adventure game Firmament. Described by Cyan as a surrealist steampunk journey, Firmament was successfully crowd-funded via Kickstarter in mid-2019. It’s tentatively scheduled for release in 2022 for all current VR platforms, but will also be available in 2D for Windows, Mac, and the PlayStation 4.
Updated 06/28/21: Xbox Cloud Gaming through the browser is now available to all Game Pass Ultimate subscribers. This article has been updated throughout with the latest information from Microsoft.
Last year, we wrote about how Apple’s restrictive App Store rules would cause millions of gamers to miss out on Microsoft’s Xbox Cloud Gaming service (née xCloud). Microsoft later updated the Xbox app to stream games over your local network from your own Xbox, but that’s not the same thing as a cloud gaming service where you don’t need to download or install games at all.
After months of hand-wringing and probably back-room negotiations, Microsoft finally announced that it would build a web-based solution for devices on which it can’t provide an app, like iPhone and iPad. After a short invite-only beta period, Microsoft has announced that all Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can now enjoy Xbox Cloud Gaming on Mac, iPhone, or iPad. To play, simply visit xbox.com/play using Edge, Chrome, or Safari browsers on your Apple device.
Most games are made to be played with a controller, but Apple’s devices support modern Xbox controllers just fine. Just sync it to your Mac as you would any Bluetooth device, or plug in via USB. On iPhone or iPad, we have a guide to pairing your Xbox One or Xbox Series X/S controller.
In addition to the broad availability of Xbox Cloud Gaming (formerly code-named xCloud) to all subscribers, Microsoft has upgraded the servers that run the games in the cloud to new hardware based on the Xbox Series X. This means faster performance, much quicker loading times, and better visual quality. Games will stream at 1080p and 60fps, but the company says that “Going forward we’ll continue to innovate and add more features to enhance your cloud gaming experience.”
On Xbox, all saved games are always synced to the cloud, as is other user data like friends lists and achievements. So everything you do on a console will be there waiting for you in the cloud, and vice-versa.
The Xbox Cloud Gaming expansion comes along with an expansion of Xbox-ready game accessories for iPhones. The popular Razer Kishi controller, originally only for Android phones, now has an MFi-certified version for iPhones. The new Backbone One controller for iPhone features a dedicated button to launch the Xbox Cloud Gaming web app. For a limited time, Microsoft is offering three-month free trial to new Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members with the purchase of either controller.
