Following a recent court ruling that forces Google to open up its Play Store, Microsoft will allow US users to purchase and play Xbox games directly from the Xbox app on Android starting in November.
Microsoft is planning to update its Xbox mobile app on Android to allow US users to purchase and then play Xbox games on their mobile devices next month. Following a US court ruling earlier this week that forces Google to stop requiring Google Play Billing for apps in the Play Store on November 1st, Microsoft is ready to take advantage of the changes.
Xbox store purchase support directly in the mobile Android app will allow Microsoft to sell Xbox games freely on Android devices, and integrated Xbox Cloud Gaming features mean people will be able to immediately stream games to their handsets after purchasing them. It’s not immediately clear why Microsoft can’t already provide Xbox game purchases inside its Android mobile app, though.
