A new category for games has been introduced on Android Auto and Android Automotive, allowing developers to create games specifically for use while parked. This transition from beta to a full category enables a wider variety of games to be available. Google has implemented safety measures, prohibiting game audio while the vehicle is in motion and notifying users if they attempt to launch a game while driving. Developers are encouraged to support external controllers and save game progress, while also ensuring games are fully adaptive to various infotainment screens. A minimum of Android 15 is required to access these features. The launch of video applications like YouTube is anticipated but remains uncertain, with potential availability pushed to 2027.

Microsoft is exploring the integration of advertisements into its XBOX gaming ecosystem without increasing prices. The company filed a patent on September 3 for a system that introduces ads during non-disruptive moments in games, such as loading screens or after missions. This system includes the concept of "advertising credits," allowing players periods free from ads. XBOX plans to incorporate ads into services like XBOX Cloud Gaming, which will offer a free tier for users who engage with ads. The company aims to prioritize player experience, avoid interrupting gameplay, maintain high-quality standards for ads, clearly distinguish ads from game content, and align ads with player expectations.
