Sony and Microsoft partner up to make better cloud gaming
Cats and dogs. Batman and the Joker. Xbox and PlayStation. Some rivalries seem too insurmountable to overcome, but that last one might be easing up a bit as Sony and Microsoft have announced a new partnership to improve “customer experiences in their direct-to-consumer entertainment platforms and AI solutions.”
In more concrete terms, the companies will jointly explore cloud development through Microsoft’s Azure technology to improve streaming services for games and other content. Sony already runs a cloud-based game streaming service with PlayStation Now, and Microsoft has been talking up its own streaming efforts in a big way over the past year.
According to the press release, “the two companies will explore the use of current Microsoft Azure datacenter-based solutions for Sony’s game and content-streaming services. By working together, the companies aim to deliver more enhanced entertainment experiences for their worldwide customers.” Additionally, the companies plan to collaborate on AI and semiconductor technologies.
