About Cloudplay

What this is

Cloudplay answers one question for 2,682 games: can I stream this, where, and do I have to buy it first? It reads the public catalogues of 5 cloud gaming services every day — GeForce NOW, Xbox Cloud Gaming, PlayStation Plus, Amazon Luna and Boosteroid — and keeps a record of what joined and what left. Next to that it shows what the services themselves do not: live server status and queue lengths for GeForce NOW, the price of a game on the stores those services stream from, and a calendar of what is coming.

Who makes it

One person, in their own time. Cloudplay is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by NVIDIA, Microsoft, Sony, Amazon, Boosteroid or any game publisher. It runs no ads and sells nothing. Some store links may become affiliate links in the future; if that happens it will be stated next to the link, not hidden in a footer.

Where the data comes from

Every figure on the site is read from a source you could read yourself — a service's own catalogue feed, a store's own price, a status page — and nothing is typed in by hand except the membership prices NVIDIA does not publish in a machine-readable form, which are dated where they appear. The methodology page lists each source, how often it is checked, and what it cannot tell us.

What it gets wrong

Catalogues change faster than a daily check; a game can be on a service for hours before it appears here, and regional catalogues differ from the US one we read. Prices are the store's list price in the currency we guess from your location, not a quote. Queue lengths are a third party's reading, a few minutes old. When something here is wrong, say so — a fix usually ships the same day.
