Today, we’re starting to test an ad-supported way to stream select games from your library for a limited time, available to XBOX Insiders.
During this test period, XBOX Insiders with an XBOX account will be able to stream games they own for free with ads. Players will have one hour session limits across supported devices and regions.
Here’s what you can expect:
Ads will play before sessions begin.
The core game experience is unchanged.
This is optional. Players can choose other ways to play at any time.

I bought the Xbox x for starfield. Mistakes were made.
