Xbox Games Now Available for Purchase on Android via Xbox App
Get ready for a game-changing update! An Xbox Android app, boasting exciting new features, is reportedly launching as early as next month, November 2024. This follows Xbox president Sarah Bond's earlier announcement of a mobile store in development.
The Details:
The app will allow Android users to purchase and play Xbox games directly through the app. This development is directly linked to the recent court ruling in Google's antitrust battle with Epic Games. The ruling mandates Google to offer broader app store options and increased flexibility, creating an opportunity for the new Xbox app. This mandate requires Google to provide access to its full app catalog to rival third-party app stores for three years, starting November 1st, 2024.
What Makes This App Special?
While an existing Xbox Android app allows game downloads to Xbox consoles and cloud streaming for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers, the November update introduces the ability to directly purchase games within the app itself. This significantly enhances accessibility and convenience for Android gamers.
Further specifics about the app's features will be revealed in November. For more in-depth information, check out the CNBC article mentioned in the original text. Until then, stay tuned for more gaming news!
