Xbox App Coming to Select LG Smart TVs

by Rainier on Jan. 6, 2025 @ 9:38 a.m. PST

Xbox announced a partnership with LG Electronics to bring the Xbox App to select LG Smart TVs.

Soon, players with LG Smart TVs will be able to explore the Gaming Portal for direct access to hundreds of games in the Game Pass Ultimate catalog, including popular titles such as Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, and upcoming releases like Avowed (launching February 18, 2025). Quotes from LG and Microsoft spokespeople are provided below.

The Xbox app on LG Smart TVs presents more ways to play on Xbox: 

  • Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members will be able to play games directly from the Xbox app on select LG Smart TVs through cloud gaming.
  • With Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and a compatible Bluetooth-enabled wireless controller, players will be able to play games through the Xbox app (available in LG’s Gaming Portal) via cloud gaming. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can also play select games they own beyond the Game Pass catalog, such as NBA 2K25Hogwarts Legacy, and more. 

Stream Your Own Game

We also recently announced that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can stream select games they own, outside the Game Pass catalog. This feature will also be available on the Xbox app with LG Smart TVs, allowing Game Pass Ultimate members to stream over 50 games they own, including NBA 2K25Hogwarts Legacy, and more.

We’ll share more details on the Xbox Cloud Gaming experience with LG TV in the coming months.
