Although Microsoft states that it is working intensively on Xbox, players do not agree with this view. With the new announcements, it was announced that a new feature will be added to satisfy Xbox players. While the Xbox Android application has been available for a while, the expected feature is finally added to this application. Microsoft will be able to sell games from the Xbox Android application. Here are the details…
Games will be available for purchase from Xbox Android app
There have long been lawsuits against Google and Apple over their store apps. This time, Microsoft plans to update the application to allow US users to buy and play Xbox games via mobile devices next month. With the decisions made by the court, it was announced that sales can be made through the store in the Google Play Store.
With the decision made by the court recently, Google was required to invoice Google Play for applications in the Play Store on 1 November. Microsoft also announced that it wants to take advantage of these changes and announced that the purchase option can be offered for Xbox players.
Xbox president Sarah Bond’s statements on X are as follows:
‘The court’s decision to open Google’s mobile store in the US will provide more choice and flexibility. Our mission is to enable more gamers to play on more devices, so we’re excited to announce that starting in November, gamers will be able to play and purchase Xbox games directly from the Xbox App on Android.’
Stating that the Android app store has become a monopoly, the court stated that billing should be allowed to open up competition. The direct purchase option through the application will allow games to be purchased through Android devices for the Xbox store. In addition, in this way, Xbox Cloud Gaming features can be transferred to devices immediately after purchase.
