They are launching it.

Given all of the requirements stated in the above article, it will probably need so much compute requirement versus the hardware specs of the GPUs mentioned, you will probably need to run the games remotely on a "remote PC" on a supercompute grid like AMD was involved with previously - it was called LiquidSky:

I purchased and tested LiquidSky remote gaming service and used it, or more accurately tested it,  for 1 year. 
They never once got around to using Vega GPUs and told people on their forums that they had dropped the idea "for now". 
I seem to remember that they actually used Nvidia server grade Titan GPUs and Intel CPUs at the time. 

I have some 3D Mark Fire Strike scores run on LiquidSky somewhere. 
Running remote benchmarks on it was about all you could use it for.
The latency and drop out of the service whilst running it was far too high to use it for gaming. 

After all of the big fanfare and announcement and hype, it never worked very well, and they closed the LiquidSky gaming service with practically no notice at all.

It was a failure.

Maybe AMD waits for 5G rollout and/or wait until everyone gets an Elon Musk upgrade  https://neuralink.com/

Here is another piece of AMD marketing / news.
It is dated April 2, so I do not think it is meant to be a joke:

Probably in response to this:

AMD "DLSS" it on Watch Dogs: Legion as well. 
I tested it last weekend.
