The future of Xbox is focused on being able to game whenever, wherever, enabling gamers to play across devices in entirely new ways, with an Xbox experience designed for players, not locked to a single store or tied to one device. This was the big focus of this year’s Xbox Games Showcase, with every game shown being part of Xbox Play Anywhere, an initiative that lets gamers play on PC, Xbox consoles, or supported handheld devices at no additional cost. With that, progress that has been made on a game can be picked up where it was left off wherever they want to play, either on the PC, console, or supported handheld.
