Soon You Can Buy Xbox Games Right On Android Through The Xbox App!

Exciting news for Xbox enthusiasts! Xbox president Sarah Bond recently announced that a new Xbox mobile store is on the horizon, and it seems we won't have to wait long. An Xbox Android app with special features is set to launch as early as next month, which is bound to shake things up in the mobile gaming world.

What’s The Full Scoop?

The Xbox mobile app is slated to hit Android devices in November. This isn't just another app; it will allow Xbox players to buy and play games directly from their smartphones. Sarah Bond shared this exciting update on X, highlighting how a recent court ruling will push the Google Play Store to offer more options and flexibility to users.

For those who might have missed it, this ruling stems from Google's four-year antitrust battle with Epic Games. The court has mandated that Google must open up its full catalogue of Google Play apps to rival third-party app stores and allow the distribution of these stores for three years, starting November 1st, 2024, and ending November 1st, 2027, unless individual developers opt out.

So, What’s The Big Deal With The New Xbox App On Android?

Currently, the Xbox app on Android enables users to download games to their Xbox consoles and, for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers, stream games from the cloud. However, come November, the app will evolve to let you purchase games directly from your mobile device.

While we'll have to wait until November to see all the features Xbox has in store, the anticipation is building. For more detailed insights, you can check out this [ttpp]CNBC article[ttpp].
