War Thunder, the free-to-play military MMO from Russian studio Gaijin Entertainment, is now offered through OnLive’s recently launched CloudLift subscription service.
“By expanding the CloudLift subscription to include a free-to-play MMO such as this one, we can now offer content in the subscription for our players to access right away, anywhere on a wide range of devices, even before they own any of the traditional download games,” said Mark Jung, executive chairman.
Streaming this MMO means no long, hefty downloads, and no huge amounts of hard drive space allocated to one specific game. Subscribers can play on their PC or laptop, and then pick up where they left off on a tablet or smartphone. This is on top of streaming PC games you already own for one monthly fee of $7.95.
Players can link their Steam account to OnLive’s CloudLift service. So far the games are limited in number, but the list will presumably grow over time as OnLive makes deals with publishers. Don’t have one of the games listed in CloudLift? You can purchase a Steam code through OnLive’s website, or simply load up Steam and purchase the game there.
If your device can run OnLive’s app, then it can run anything listed on OnLive.
