Get ready for an exciting Xbox mobile gaming experience! An official Xbox Android app, boasting new features, is reportedly launching as early as next month – November!
The Details:
This app will allow Android users to purchase and play Xbox games directly through the app, a significant upgrade from the current version. This announcement, shared on X by Xbox president Sarah Bond, highlights the impact of the recent court ruling in Google's antitrust battle with Epic Games. This ruling mandates Google Play offer broader app store options and increased flexibility for three years, creating the opportunity for this new Xbox app.
Why is this a big deal?
The existing Xbox Android app allows game downloads to Xbox consoles and cloud gaming for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers. The November update adds the crucial ability to directly purchase games within the app itself, greatly enhancing convenience for Android gamers.
More specifics will be revealed in November. For now, you can find further information in this CNBC article [link to CNBC article would go here if available].
