THE BRIEF

Users who exceed the 15-hour cap will be required to pay additional fees to continue accessing cloud-based gaming services on their devices.

The move reflects the company's strategy to balance the high operational expenses of cloud gaming with the growing demand for its Game Pass subscription service.
