Modder BadassBaboon released their impressive Reality Redemption overhaul mod for the PC version of Red Dead Redemption.
A Xenoblade Chronicles PC port has been listed by Microsoft as an officially supported Microsoft Game Assist title.
Hmmm interesting. Hopefully true, liking the slowly but surely partnership between the big 3. Just imagine all the xenoblade games officially on pc. I think mcsft going 3rd party but still making consoles fits them.
Xenoblade chronicles X is not there
Either removed or the picture shown was edited, but it is currently not there
Microsoft may have begun internally testing Steam integration within the Microsoft Store environment, with the intention of eventually bringing it to the next-generation Xbox console.
Now Xbox players who’ve been dying to play PlayStation games will choose to play Spider-Man, The Last of Us and God of War. Horizon: Zero Dawn - not so much.

It's being claimed Sony can block their games from being available on Microsoft's hybrid console/PC that will have Steam on it. I saw it on Twitter by a well known source
Even if in a limited fashion, It will allow integration with Steam so Xbox console gamers will get access to their Steam library and get to play some PC only games, which is awesome news for console only player like myself.
Yes, they'll be able to play PC only games because.... they will have bought a PC
@Obscure_Observer
I don't think that is going to happen. It sounds like you think PC games are coming to Xbox. What this is is just bring PC to.... PC.
Well IF they can get the emulator to work, bringing Xbox to PC. Whether or not you call this Windows dressing a console is debatable. This will definitely get them out of the console business though
"Yes, they'll be able to play PC only games because.... they will have bought a PC"
Being hearing such clueless talk since 2001 when the original Xbox introduced hard drive and broadband internet to consoles.
Some people will just hate and fear what they can´t comprehend.
@Eonjay
"I don't think that is going to happen. It sounds like you think PC games are coming to Xbox. What this is is just bring PC to.... PC."
Then why spend so much money to make Xbox consoles a part of the equation? Seriously dude, your comment doesn't even make sense and defies any reasonable logic..
Microsoft did not introduce broadband or harddrive use in consoles, they did standardise it though.
As for the rest, you had the same response to ms becoming a 3rd party publisher....didn't believe it untill ms told you to, didn't like it till ms told you to...
You won't be getting steam on a console ecosystem, stop dreaming, infact the next console is up in the air, you'll be lucky to get an oem arm device at best and at worst, a pc with an xbox sticker....
Told you already, they moving you hardcore xbox boys to pc...
You talking about logic is funny, especially when all you do is parrot what you hear from ms and pivot your opinion as much as they pivot their messaging to align with what they say, just buy a pc bro, it'll be easier for you going forward.
@obscured: “ Xbox + Steam = Instant Buy!
Day One!!! “
.
Is there anything Xbox that isn’t day one for you?
Is your Xbox fridge working for you or frozen up with a red ring I remember you was going to get it day one.
Having steam integrated on the next market is a nice thing to have that would had been better a generation ago but better late than never 🤷🏿
Personally I will ALWAYS BUY A SYSTEM FOR THE GAMES NOT A STORE FRONT 🤦🏿
believe it or not, many pc gamers boycott games based on the storefronts. Steam or no buy according to many of them
I honestly don't get the point of this. There is already a Steam Store on PC so adding it to the MS store seems redundant. Also this doesn't really mention Xbox.
This is just a simple integration on the Xbox app for PC to see both libraries at the same time gog already offers this.
In the future the next box will not run Xbox software but instead it will Run uwp apps to unify PC and console.
It presents a number of problems like the steamdeck verification system and requiring a wrapper for third parties but it means you don't have to Dev for a console anymore and just Dev for PC
Means that backwards compatibility has to be offered via a translation layer like wine to and full BC is not a given.
It's a interesting take but I see it only working short term like steam deck getting a steam deck verified game is getting harder and the system is only a few years old
Sounds more like a PC with the Xbox and steam logo on it 😂 I'm sure it's going to be expensive as well since it's rumor to be using the ARM architecture technology
No need for me to buy an Xbox anymore, last one i owned was 360 anyway. That and the original were good consoles. Everything is on PC now and I usually keep mine fairly modern so it's always going to outperform it, and I like to mess with apps and programs that you can't do on console so..
We already have xbox games integration, it's called Steam.
MS store is like Bing, no one wants it.
Xbox store is more flexible than Steamnif you own a console. Cross saves and cross buy is amazing.
If a game is on the Xbox store and Steam, given the choice, I buy the Xbox store version.
If a game I want gets released, I always check the Xbox store first.
"If a game is on the Xbox store and Steam, given the choice, I buy the Xbox store version."
Found the Bing user.
This site is so retarded. There's literally no downside for buying on the PC xbox store if you have a console.
If the game released on the PC Xbox store, if you buy it there, you get the game for free on console.
And you share the same save file.
If I buy the game on Steam, if I wanted to play that game on console, I would have to buy it again.
I get it, because it's Xbox/Microsoft, it's automatically bad.
It's only a benefit to check if a game released on the Xbox store.
......what's wrong with Bing? Its good to use it to get points towards stuff like movie tickets, xbox gift cards, etc.
That isn't what this is. I would really like to know where the misinformation is coming from.
Maybe the next Xbox is a PC with an Xbox app that boots up when you turn it on but allows you to run PC apps and Xbox games will be converted to a version playable on PCs as well... but don't expect PC games to come to Xbox consoles.
I imagine they will let you download an app that allows you to play your Xbox games on PC. But you will still be able to download from Steam because it is a PC.
This isn't going to turn PC games into console games. It's not even going to change how Steam changes at all since no third-party is going to want to give you a PC and console copy of a game for the same price without someone paying for it.
@terry: “ .who asked for this?”
Refer to post one that couldn’t wait for this amazing killer app that will entice all Nintendo, Sony and PC gamers to buy the next generation of Xbox console 🤣
Edited for typos
Makes sense doesn't it? If we are going to have Dell Alienware Xbox's and HP Xbox and Lenovo Xbox and Asus TuF Gaming Xbox PC's. A console like PC with a limited/customised windows with console form in mind.
Most likely but unfortunately that's just the way the world is now. Nintendo charging $500+ for a handheld that's roughly as powerful as a PS4 pro from 2016.
Sony charging $700 for a PS5 Pro.
Microsoft charging $730 for a 5 year old console with a extra 1tb of storage.
Apple charging $800 for the cheapest iPhone 16.
Samsung charging $800 for the basic s25.
The Creature Collector Fest event has come to steam until May 19. Here are some epic discounted games to scratch the critter gathering itch.
Wow that does look really nice. I would love a side-by-side comparisons before the mod and after and also side-by-side with the newest console version.
Wonder if this works for Undead Nightmare as well...
