Streaming your favorite games on Steam is possible through Steam's companion app, Steam Link. This device could be your smartphone, tablet, and even another PC. It also allows you to stream and play video games through your chosen device. It’s clear that everybody wants to turn 2019 into the year of cloud gaming.Valve's Steam game launcher is more than just a way to buy your favorite games digitally and launch them from a single app. Google also has been teasing its Game Developers Conference to learn more about its gaming projects.
Microsoft recently showed off Forza Horizon 4 running on an Android phone thanks to Project xCloud. That would turn Steam Link Anywhere into a Shadow competitor. Now let’s see if Valve plans to flip the switch and let you run Steam games on a server in a data center near you. If you don’t have a fiber connection at home, the latency might simply be too high to play any game. With Steam Link Anywhere, your performance will vary depending on your home internet connection. Steam Link works fine on a local network, especially if you use Ethernet cables between all your devices. You can start Steam on your computer and play demanding PC games on other screens. Unfortunately, Valve still hasn’t found a way to release its Steam Link app on the App Store for iOS devices and the Apple TV. You can now download the Steam Link app on an Android phone, an Android TV device or a Raspberry Pi. While Valve might be done on the hardware side, the company is still iterating on Steam Link apps. The company’s strategy is a bit puzzling here as Valve recently discontinued its hardware set-top box, the Steam Link. As the name suggests, it lets you turn your gaming PC into a cloud gaming server and stream games from… anywhere. As PC Gamer spotted, the company quietly released a beta version of Steam Link Anywhere. Valve doesn’t want to miss the cloud gaming bandwagon.
