Selected Samsung Smart TVs from 2022 through 2026 support Xbox Cloud Gaming through Samsung Gaming Hub and the Xbox app. Exact eligibility depends on your country and the TV’s complete model code, so check Samsung’s local compatibility list before relying on a series name alone. Samsung Canada also lists a limited set of 2021 TVs supported after a software update.
Which Samsung TV model families are listed?
Samsung’s compatibility lists are regional and use model-family shorthand. The families below are screening clues, not confirmation that every regional variant or retail SKU is eligible. Check the full model code against the page for your country.

Samsung Canada names the QN900A, QN800A, QN90A, Q80A, AU8000 and The Frame LS03A as 2021 models supported through a software update. This is a limited exception, not evidence that all 2021 Samsung TVs are compatible.
Samsung New Zealand: year-specific families
Samsung New Zealand publishes separate family lists by model year. Its 2026 list includes R99/95/85H, QN990H, S9*/S8*H, QN8*/7*/6*H, M9*/8*/7*/6*H, M1EH, U8***H and LS03H*.

Why the US wording is not a global guarantee
Samsung’s US Gaming Hub page describes availability on all 2022-and-newer Samsung Smart TVs, while Samsung Canada says select models and the New Zealand page enumerates families. Those statements have different regional scopes. The broad US wording should not be treated as a worldwide guarantee; Samsung says availability can vary by country and model. See Samsung’s US Gaming Hub page.
How to check your exact TV
- Find the complete model code on the TV or in its settings. A family name or release year by itself is not enough to establish eligibility.
- Open Samsung’s Gaming Hub or cloud gaming compatibility page for your country and compare the complete code with its supported list.
- Confirm that the Xbox app and cloud gaming service are available in your region, and check the current access requirements for the game you want to play.
- If the TV is a listed 2021 Canadian model, make sure it has the software update Samsung specifies for support.
Samsung’s pages caution that specific features and services can vary by country and model. A TV’s panel type or premium gaming specifications do not, by themselves, prove that it supports the Xbox app.

What you need to play through Xbox Cloud Gaming
On a supported Samsung TV, Xbox Cloud Gaming is accessed through the Xbox app in Samsung Gaming Hub. Samsung’s US app listing says cloud gaming requires Xbox Game Pass Ultimate; check the current service terms and game availability in your region, since access and catalog offerings can change. The app listing also notes device and regional availability limits: Samsung US Xbox app listing.
- A supported TV and region: Confirm the exact model and that the service is available where you live.
- Internet access and an available game: Cloud gaming streams a supported title through the app; catalog availability can change.
- The required access route: Samsung’s US listing specifies Game Pass Ultimate for cloud gaming. Verify current plan terms and eligibility before subscribing.
- A compatible controller, when required: Samsung lists Bluetooth and USB controller options, including Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One controllers. Check the device and app requirements for your setup: Samsung’s controller and Gaming Hub information.
Samsung’s June 20, 2025 announcement about EA SPORTS FC 25 specifically said that offer required a compatible controller and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. That requirement was stated for the announced offer; it should not be assumed to describe every future game or access route. Read the Samsung announcement for its original context.

What to do if your model is not listed
Do not infer support from a similar-looking model, series name, or another country’s list. Check your local Samsung page using the complete model code, then confirm the TV’s software is up to date and that the Xbox app is available in your region. If Samsung’s regional list does not identify your model, the available information does not establish that it is supported; contact Samsung with the full code for a device-specific answer.
