The bad news is that only 26 games that are available through cloud gaming will have that support for now, and Microsoft didn’t mention whether that list will grow in the future.Mouse and keyboard support is available for those who are cloud gaming on Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome browsers.

Another May update addition includes a new Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II channel that features video content ahead of the game’s May 21 release date.
