How to play Baldur’s Gate 3 on cloud gaming

You can play Baldur’s Gate 3 on cloud gaming in two ways: by streaming your own game copy (BYOG) or by installing it on a full cloud PC. Below, we outline both methods so you can choose the one that works for you.

Method 1

Bring your own game (BYOG)

To use your own copy of the game, you need to link the store account where you own it to the cloud gaming service. Supported store versions can vary by service:

Once your store account is linked, you can open the service's catalog, select Baldur’s Gate 3, and start streaming in your browser or a supported app. Depending on the service, a brief cloud setup may be required before the first launch. The plan can also be used to stream other games you own that are available in the service's catalog.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is a "Stream your own game" title on Xbox Cloud Gaming, which means you need to own or buy the Xbox Store version to play it.
