The Xbox handheld, if it were to be developed or released, would likely support remote play for Xbox Series X/S games if it follows the existing capabilities of the Xbox ecosystem. Currently, Xbox Remote Play allows users to stream games from their Xbox Series X, Series S, or Xbox One consoles to devices like phones, tablets, or PCs. This feature is accessible through the Xbox app, which is available on Android and iOS devices[1][2][7].
To use remote play, you need to enable the remote features on your Xbox console by going to the settings, then devices and connections, and selecting remote features. You also need a stable internet connection with recommended upload speeds of at least 4.75 Mbps and a preferred 5GHz Wi-Fi network for optimal performance[7].
While there is no specific mention of an "Xbox handheld" device in the current context, any device that supports the Xbox app and meets the necessary internet requirements could potentially use remote play. The Xbox ecosystem already supports streaming games from consoles to various devices, so it's plausible that a future handheld device would integrate this capability seamlessly.
However, it's important to note that the availability of remote play on a hypothetical Xbox handheld would depend on Microsoft's future plans and the device's specifications. For now, remote play is a robust feature that allows users to access their Xbox library from anywhere, provided they have a compatible device and a stable internet connection[2][3][5].
