Search Microsoft Turns The Surface Duo Into A Handheld Xbox Console By Tyler Lee, on 05/24/2021 19:58 PDT It might seem a bit strange that out of all the console manufacturers, at least the modern ones, Microsoft is the only one to not have released a portable console. Sony had its PS Vita and PSP, and Nintendo has its DS series and now the Switch series, but Microsoft was always missing from the picture, at least until now, sort of.

For those unfamiliar, the Xbox Cloud Gaming app basically allows gamers to stream Xbox games onto their mobile devices.
