How do we know this? Sarah Bond, the President of Xbox Gaming, said that the company plans to launch the mobile game store around July during the recent Bloomberg Technology Summit.
What games will we get to see on Xbox Gaming app store?
To begin with, we might get to see games from Microsoft’s portfolio on the Xbox mobile gaming app. These can include popular games like Candy Crush by King and Minecraft by Mojang. Call of Duty Mobile can also make it to the list.
How will this app store align with Google’s PlayStore and Apple App Store?
We are aware of how Google dominates with the PlayStore on Android and the Apple App Store on iOS. No third player has been able to stand in front of their monopoly. The Xbox mobile gaming app is going to be a direct competitor to these two. Gamers will be able to access their favourite games here. But the challenge here is that Xbox will have to navigate through Apple App Store’s strict rules for third-party store apps.
The app store will debut on the web and you will be able to download it from there.
