We are likely headed towards a future where consoles become a thing of the past. A distant future, but a seemingly inevitable one, and it's Xbox leading the pack in terms of who will get to that future first. Xbox has long given gamers the option to play Xbox games without an Xbox via PC Game Pass, and then opened that option up to even more people by making𝔉 its Game Pass titles playable through select Samsung Smart TVs. Now even more people can utilize Game Pass without a console as 168澳洲幸运5开奖𒁃网:the Xbox TV ap﷽p has arrived on Amazon Fire Stick.
Getting The Right Fire Stick
Xbox and Amazon confirmed the team-up in June 2024, rolling out 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Game Pass compatibility on Amazon Fire Stick the following month. You've likely come here to either get started with or troubleshoot your Game Pass on Fire Stick setup, so first thing's first - let's make sure you've got the right Fire Stick. Only the Fire Stick TV 4K and Fire Stick TV 4K Max models of the Amazon product will work. If you've been desperately searching for the Xbox TV app to no avail but you don't🐭 own one of these models, thﷺere's your problem.

Amazon Fire Stick
Not only can you now use your Fire Stick to stream Game Pass via the Xbox TV app, but all of your other 🌱favorite streaming apps are there too, including Netflix and Disney Plus.
Once your Fire Stick is inserted into a vacant HDMI port, you will need to use its search function to find and download the Xbox TV app. Download the app and once you've launched it, you will need to sign into your Microsoft account. You will also have the opportunity to create a Microsoft account at this point if you don't already have one. After that, you will need to log in to your Game Pass account. Again, if you don't already have Game Pass, this is the point in the process where you'll have the chance to s൲ign up, or do it beforehand by scrolling down to the link in the box a little further on in this article.
Signing Up For Game Pass
Whether you're new to Game Pass or not, there are options. Naturally you will want to avoid signing up for PC Game Pass, or if that's the sub you have right now you will need to change it to use the service through your Amazon Fire Stick. Game Pass Core, which is the cheaper option on consoles, also isn't going to do you any good here. The only tier that functions with the Xbox TV app on Amazon Fire Sticks is Game Pass Ultimate. You can sign up or upgrade to Ultimate through the link in t🐲he box below if you need to.

- Number of Accounts
- 1 Primary Account Holder 💦
- Number of Devices Concurrently
- Five, with Friends & 🌄Family (in limited countries)
If you want to play Xbox titles through your Fire Stick, you're going to need Game Pass Ultimate. Once you're signed up, hundreds of games await, and 𒈔you don't even need a console to play them on.
Once you've got the right Fire Stick, the Xbox TV app is installed, and you're logged into Game Pass Ultimate, there's really only one more thing you need - the right controller. You don't need me to tell you battling others in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Halo Infinite and navigating 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Starfield's 1,000 planets would be a nightmare using a regular remote controller. In fact, while I've not tried it myself, I'm almost certain that's ♒not an option.
Compatible Controllers
The good news is even though not many controllers are compatible with the Xbox TV app on Amazon Fire Stick right now, there's a strong chance you already own at least one of them. Even if you are going through all this because you already own a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:PlayStation but you want to play Xbox games without buying a new console, the PS4's DualShock and PS5's DualSense are both compatible, minus some of the latter's fancier perks like its adaptive triggers. Xbox's regular wireless controller and its adaptive co๊ntroller can also be used with the app.

Xbox Wireless Controller
Playing Xbox games on the Xbox Game Pass through the Xbox TV app? Yeah, you can use a DualSen🍨se, but it would make more sense for you to play them with an Xbox controller, wouldn't it?
Once you have the tools you need and you've followed the steps above, you should be ♏able to play any of the hundreds of titles available on Xbox Game Pass through your Amazon Fire Stick. Although a huge step forward for Xbox in its attempts to get people playing its games and a big step for a future where people play games without consoles, its functionality is far from perfect. Since you will be streaming the games, you will need an internet connection to play them, and the strength of that connection will determine how smooth your experience is while gaming on your Fire Stick.
