Xbox One: Meet the Universal Applications that are already available for the Console

With the arrival of the Xbox One's Summer Update, a range of new features has been introduced to further merge the console into the Windows ecosystem. Among the additions is a new universal storefront, which unifies the existing Xbox Store with its Windows counterpart.

As a part of the update, support has been added for Universal Windows applications on the Xbox One. At this point in time, the rollout has been slow but steady, with only a few apps currently on the console. We've compiled a list of all the Universal Windows apps available on the Xbox One today.

Oddly enough, those are the three games that probably interest me the least on X1...although I suppose Forza would be OK for me if I wanted to get into another racing game.

I got my X1 for the other stuff they have coming, and took the plunge for QB.

"for some reason"

So people can't enjoy racing games these days?

ONESHOTV23256d ago (Edited 3256d ago )

LIGATURE----- and the only reason to get a (ponystation) is for persona & yakuza you see two of us can dance to the same tune. btw i'm not trolling i'm just showing him two can play the same name calling game he started (check bio)

I decided on an Xbox for many reasons, Halo being one of them. I understood very well that the PS4 is the stronger machine, and would receive more Japanese support, but I preferred features of the Xbone, mainly the user interface, online infrastructure, controllers, GWG, and the fact I predicted Microsoft will probably open Windows 10 on the box at a low level, making it function more like a computer. We'll see some cool modding in a few years. I also trust Microsoft a bit more with my security opposed to Sony. I do get jealous of some of the games that are PS4 exclusive, but I don't regret my purchase for a moment.

All I know is I can play N64 games on the Xbox One and that is freaking amazing

UltraNova3255d ago

Can you play Mario 64, Ocarina of time, and Goldeneye as well?

ShinMaster3255d ago

Apparently Rare Replay = all N64 games /s

UltraNova3254d ago

Bg,

No it doesnt. Actually it raises more questions like will Nintendo allow an xbox emulator app to even see the light of day?

Actually the wont. They will sue MS so hard if they ever allowed it.

For the record, the best way to play N64 games is to actually play them on one.

Concertoine3255d ago (Edited 3255d ago )

This could be huge for the xbone. Emulators for NES, SNES, N64 maybe even PS1 or Neo-Geo and stuff like that. Everyone says that there's no viable legal action against emulators and i hope this holds true because it could literally make the xbone my most played console.

gangsta_red3255d ago

Definitely agree, I had the OG Xbox for the reason of installing emulators on it too. Would love to see something like that return to the Xbox.

Give me a NEW and SNES emulator and then all will be well with the world.

That controller looks like a cheap knockoff... it should have been a proper DS5 design.

...the VR aspect in 7 IS the redeeming quality.

Abriael10h ago(Edited 9h ago)

what a dumb take.

Ace Combat 7 is one of the best games of the past generation. It doesn't need VR gimmicks to "redeem" it.

TheColbertinator2h ago

I have enjoyed nearly every single Ace Combat to death (except that helicopter shooting one) and have never needed VR once to enjoy it greatly

CrimsonWing6911h ago

Look, I’m a simple man. I see Ace Combat and say, “Yes!”

Abnor_Mal10h ago(Edited 10h ago)

Can we get a new Ace Combat, with full vr and not just three or four levels, for PS5 and PSVR2
Also if we could get a remake of my all time favorite, Ace Combat5: The Unsung War, again with full vr for every mission with DualSense and flight stick haptics.

I knew holding off playing it for 10 years was the right call.
