Microsoft Mobile Games is Launching a Web-Based Store
Microsoft will be rolling out its mobile games from its own store within the next few months as it is officially launching a web-based store. It was announced by Sarah Bond, Xbox President during the Bloomberg Technology Summit. The store will be a one-stop place where users can download its mobile games and also find other add-ons and in-app purchases at a discounted rate.
Bond notes that the company decided to roll out a browser-based store instead of an app to make sure it is "accessible across all devices, all countries, no matter what" so that you don't get "locked to a single ecosystem." Another spokesperson notes this is "just the first step in [the company's] journey to building a trusted app store with its roots in gaming."
