Greenlight
An open-source desktop client for streaming Xbox games via xCloud and Xbox home streaming.
What is Greenlight?
Greenlight is an open-source desktop client that allows users to stream games from Xbox consoles and Microsoft's xCloud service to their computers. It provides a native application for accessing Xbox game streaming services, enabling gameplay on Linux, macOS, Windows, and Steam Deck devices. The project solves the need for a cross-platform, community-driven client for Xbox streaming outside of official Microsoft applications.
Gamers who own Xbox consoles or subscribe to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and want to stream games to their desktop computers, particularly those using Linux or macOS where official clients may be limited. It also appeals to Steam Deck users looking to access Xbox games on their handheld device.
Developers choose Greenlight because it's the only open-source, cross-platform client specifically for Xbox and xCloud streaming, offering transparency and community-driven improvements. Unlike official options, it provides consistent access across all major desktop operating systems and includes features like built-in friends lists and detailed streaming statistics.
