Microsoft has announced exciting changes to its mobile gaming ecosystem, revealing plans to unify its Xbox and Xbox Game Pass applications for iPhone and iPad users.
According to The Verge, the update, which is expected to be released soon, aims to create a comprehensive app that brings together features from both platforms, improving the user experience for gamers on the go.
With the upcoming release of our unified Xbox app, users will be able to access their Game Pass membership, browse our extensive game catalog, and manage their benefits, all from a single interface.
According to The Verge, Microsoft has confirmed that the standalone Xbox Game Pass app will be removed from the App Store in November, signaling a bigger shift towards this all-in-one solution.
Xbox Game Pass is a subscription-based service that offers gamers a regular selection of titles to play on their Xbox consoles and Windows PCs.
While the Xbox Game Pass app has previously allowed you to search and download games from the catalog, it’s important to note that these games cannot be played directly on iPhone or iPad devices, according to The Verge.
