Microsoft Announces That Windows 10 Will Allow Users to Stream and Play Their Xbox One Video Games on a PC

Phil Spencer, the head of Xbox at Microsoft, has recently announced that their upcoming Windows 10 operating system will allow users to stream and play their Xbox One video games on a desktop, laptop, or tablet PC. Lionhead Studios‘ upcoming cooperative role-playing video game, Fable Legends, will be the first title capable of cross-platform play between PCs and the Xbox One. Windows 10 is currently scheduled to be released in late 2015.

The built-in Xbox app is the place where your world of gaming comes together. It’s a unified view of the games you care about, your friends, and your gaming activities. And with Xbox Live, more than 50 million members will now connect across screens in new ways.

“Over the last 13 years, Xbox has been focused on creating and expanding great gaming and entertainment experiences on console. We’re incredibly proud of the Xbox One and are fully committed to ensuring it’s the best place to play console games in 2015 and beyond,” said Spencer. “Now, we are also bringing that same focus, passion, and commitment to gaming on Windows 10, enhancing the PC games and gaming devices you already love, including the Xbox One. We’ve listened and learned from our past efforts in PC gaming and I am excited about what the future holds.” – Phil Spencer
