The Logitech G Cloud is a unique handheld built for streaming, emulation, and light native Android gaming. With its sharp 7-inch screen, long battery life, and comfortable controls, it’s become a favorite for cloud gaming fans and retro enthusiasts alike. Despite owning a ROG Ally, I find myself using the G Cloud just as much. All thanks to its Android OS, cloud-first design, and sheer convenience.
Whether you’re diving into Xbox Cloud, testing GeForce Now’s 4K tier, loading Android favorites, or reliving the classics, this guide rounds up the top titles that play beautifully on the Logitech G Cloud.
Best Games to Stream on the Logitech G Cloud
Forza Horizon 5 (Xbox Cloud / GeForce Now)
Forza Horizon 5’s expansive open-world driving is a standout showcase for Xbox Cloud. The G Cloud’s high-quality screen brings out the game’s colorful landscapes and weather effects. The responsive controls allow for precise steering, even without a wired setup. It’s the kind of game that feels made for the pick-up-and-play nature of handheld devices.
Halo Infinite
One of the most impressive cloud-native experiences on the G Cloud, Halo Infinite runs surprisingly well over both Xbox Cloud and GeForce Now. Users consistently highlight its low input latency and sharp visuals, even during heated firefights. The G Cloud’s ergonomics enhance longer sessions, and the game’s multiplayer feels just as responsive as on console, provided your connection is solid.

Retro Gems and Emulated Classics
The Logitech G Cloud excels at running a wide range of retro games thanks to its solid hardware and Android flexibility. For emulation, many users, including myself, prefer using Daijishō as a frontend, which makes managing and launching games seamless.
The PSP is widely regarded as one of the best platforms to emulate on the G Cloud, with titles like Patapon and Monster Hunter Freedom running flawlessly and offering crisp visuals with minimal input lag. Nintendo’s consoles before the GameCube era, such as Game Boy Advance, DS, and even SNES, also perform excellently, thanks to reputable emulators with optimized controller support. When it comes to GameCube games, the experience varies; many titles run decently on the G Cloud with some tweaks, though performance can be hit or miss depending on the game and emulator settings.
Lastly, classic RPGs like Knights of the Old Republic, Final Fantasy entries, and Chrono Trigger offer perfect offline retro RPG enjoyment and are a favorite among G Cloud users looking for nostalgia on the go. Many are also available on the Play Store for a cheap price, too!
All in all, the Logitech G Cloud offers a surprisingly versatile platform for gaming on the go. Its strengths lie in cloud streaming and emulation, but with the right mix of apps and settings, you can build a library that rivals a home console, right in your hands.
