Google is doing a limited public beta test of its video game streaming technology. The search giant is cooperating with Ubisoft to test the technology with the new Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. Called Project Stream, this system will let you play the game straight in your Chrome browser. Details on how to participate in the test can be found at Google's blog.
We’ve been working on Project Stream, a technical test to solve some of the biggest challenges of streaming. For this test, we’re going to push the limits with one of the most demanding applications for streaming—a blockbuster video game.

We’ve partnered with one of the most innovative and successful video game publishers, Ubisoft, to stream their soon-to-be released Assassin’s Creed Odyssey® to your Chrome browser on a laptop or desktop. Starting on October 5, a limited number of participants will get to play the latest in this best-selling franchise at no charge for the duration of the Project Stream test.
