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

Exciting news for Xbox fans! Xbox president Sarah Bond recently announced that an Xbox mobile store is on the horizon, and now it seems that an Xbox Android app with special features could be launched as early as next month. Imagine being able to buy and play games directly from your Android device. That's right, starting in November, Xbox players will have this new convenience at their fingertips.

Sarah Bond shared this update on X, highlighting how a recent court ruling in the Google vs. Epic Games antitrust battle is paving the way for this innovation. The ruling mandates that Google must allow rival third-party app stores access to the full Google Play catalog and distribute these stores from November 1st, 2024, to November 1st, 2027. This increased flexibility is what's enabling Xbox to expand its mobile presence.

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

You might already be familiar with the current Xbox app on Android, which allows you to download games to your Xbox consoles and stream games from the cloud if you're a Game Pass Ultimate subscriber. But come November, this app will evolve to let you directly purchase games through the app itself. This is a game-changer for mobile gaming enthusiasts who want seamless access to Xbox titles.
