Xbox to begin selling games through Android app in November

Microsoft will allow users to purchase games directly through its Xbox app on Android starting in November. This decision follows a court ruling requiring Google to open its Play Store to third-party stores for three years. Xbox aims to enhance consumer choice and flexibility within the gaming ecosystem. Initially, the Xbox app will feature first-party games like Minecraft and Candy Crush, with plans to include third-party games later. Additionally, Xbox has merged its main app with the Xbox Game Pass app for a more cohesive user experience.

Microsoft has merged the Xbox App with the Xbox Game Pass app, allowing users to purchase games directly and access Xbox Cloud Gaming on Android devices starting November 1, 2024. This change follows a court ruling requiring Google to open its U.S. mobile storefront. The Xbox App will serve as the central hub for gaming on mobile, while users can access cloud gaming at Xbox.com/play. Microsoft also plans to launch an Xbox Mobile Store, expected in July 2024, featuring first-party titles and eventually third-party games.
