Xbox PC app update adds cross-platform play history and filters: Details
Microsoft has rolled out new updates to the Xbox PC app for members of the Xbox Insider Programme, allowing users to view and access their recent game activity across devices, including cloud titles that were not built to run natively on PC. The company confirmed the changes in a press release, stating that the updates are part of its ongoing effort to unify the Xbox experience across platforms. Key features introduced A new cloud-playable filter has been added to the Library section of the Xbox PC app. This allows users to view all games currently playable via Xbox Cloud Gaming, including console-exclusive titles from the original Xbox to Xbox Series X and Series S. According to Xbox, these games appear in the library regardless of whether a user owns them or accesses them through Game Pass. The play history section now shows the 'Jump back in' list on the Xbox PC app home screen. Xbox states that this section includes recently played games across any Xbox-supported device — console, PC, or Windows handheld — enabling users to resume gameplay across platforms. The play history feature also includes cloud titles, which means console-exclusive games played on an Xbox can appear in the PC app and be resumed via cloud gaming, provided they support Xbox Cloud Gaming. Availability These features are currently available only to Xbox Insiders. Users interested in early access to experimental features can join the Xbox Insider Programme via the Xbox Insider Hub app on Xbox consoles or Windows PCs.

Play anywhere: Xbox now syncs game progress across console, PC and Windows handheld
Microsoft recently introduced an aggregated gaming library in the Xbox PC app for Windows 11, enabling players to launch their favourite games from Xbox, Game Pass, and Now, building on the update, Xbox is getting a new feature, which, according to Microsoft, makes 'your library as the go-to destination for your games.' In a blog post, Microsoft said gamers who are part of the Xbox Insiders will now see all their cloud-playable games added to their play history and Library in the Xbox PC app. Irrespective of whether you own a game or access it from Game Pass, all your cloud-playable titles, including console exclusives from the original Xbox to the Xbox Series X|S, will now be accessible from a single window. Microsoft also added a new filter called 'cloud playable' to the Xbox PC app Library, which allows you to see which games are supported. Moreover, game history, preferences and progression will now sync across devices via a new play history tile, allowing gamers to pick up where they left off, no matter which device they are on. This means that the game you left at a certain point on your Xbox console can be continued on another device. To do so, simply open the Xbox app on the device of your choice, and you will see your play history at the end of the 'Jump back in' list. The same list also appears on the Xbox console interface, hinting that Microsoft might add a new feature that lets you play PC games via Xbox Cloud Gaming. The Xbox Cloud Gaming platform is currently powered by special servers maintained by Microsoft, but according to internal emails which came out during the FTC vs Microsoft case, it looks like the gaming giant is also working on letting players stream PC games over the internet. If you are not a part of the Xbox Insider Program, open the app store on your Xbox or PC, search for 'Insider' and download and install the Xbox Insider Hub to access the newest features.

You can now stream select Xbox games you own to PC, no Xbox required—but there's a catch
You can now play select Xbox games you own on your PC by streaming them through the Xbox PC app—if you're an Xbox Insider with a Game Pass Ultimate subscription. This is a big deal because it includes some games which are not part of the Xbox Game Pass program, so it's the first time subscribers can stream these games via the Xbox PC app. And since you can also purchase games through the app, you don't even need to own an Xbox to buy and play these games. So in a sense, this is Xbox taking another step down the path towards being a console-agnostic game streaming service à la Nvidia's GeForce Now. Xbox Game Pass is already one of the best cloud gaming services around, and this new feature makes it just a little bit better. Of course, you currently have to sign up for the PC Gaming Preview portion of Microsoft's Xbox Insiders program to test it out. The news comes courtesy of an Xbox Wire blog post published yesterday (July 15) in which Microsoft's Anu Reddy explains that Xbox Insiders who have joined the PC Gaming Preview and also subscribe to Game Pass Ultimate ($20/month) can now stream some Xbox games they own via the PC app in the 28 countries (including Australia, the U.S. and the U.K.) where Xbox Cloud Gaming is available. It's basically an expanded version of the "stream your own game" feature Xbox introduced late last year, and since then the list of supported games has quintupled to over 250. The list of supported games is available to peruse on Xbox's website, and while it doesn't include many Xbox exclusives (no Blinx 2 or Lost Odyssey, for example) it does include Xbox 360 games like Saint's Row 2. And to be clear, you're not actually streaming anything from your Xbox when using this feature. The "stream your own game" branding can be misleading, because when you stream one of these games via the Xbox PC app you're actually streaming it via xCloud directly from Microsoft's servers, so your Xbox isn't necessary. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. This can be confusing because the Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X also have a Remote Play feature that lets you stream games you own directly from your console to your PC, TV, smartphone, tablet or Meta Quest headset using your Xbox. None of this is hugely surprising since we've long known (thanks in part to reporting from The Verge ) that Microsoft is pushing to expand its game streaming capabilities as part of something internally branded Project Lapland. The company has been working to beef up its technical capabilities and get developers and publishers to sign off on allowing their games to be streamed remotely, which is presumably why the list of supported games has been steadily growing since last November.

All digital Xbox games now carry standardized accessibility tags
Microsoft just announced that all digital games and experiences are now accompanied by clearly labeled and standardized accessibility tags . These Accessible Games Initiative tags are designed to "provide players with clear and consistent information about the accessibility features in video games." They are found on top of the store page. As you can see below, the game South of Midnight includes 13 accessibility features . Clicking "More" leads to a description of each. In this case, the game boasts adjustable input sensitivity, multiple volume controls, color alternatives, large subtitles and the ability to play without button holds, among other accessibility-minded features. Each of these tags can now be used as a filter in the Xbox Store, to make it easier to search for the perfect game. They are also available in the Xbox PC app, Xbox Mobile app and, of course, on the website. Xbox began implementing Accessibility Feature tags back in 2021 , but this move marks a transition to the standardized Accessible Games Initiative tags . These standardized tags are being managed by the Entertainment Software Association, with input from companies like Nintendo, EA, Ubisoft, Sony and Microsoft. Other big firms like Amazon Games, Riot Games, Square Enix and Warner Bros. Games have since joined the project. All told, there are 24 possible accessibility tags , advertising features like text-to-speech and menu narration. Despite being involved since inception, Nintendo and Sony have yet to update their store pages with these tags. It looks like Microsoft is the first of the big three to do so. While the gaming industry is standardizing this feature, the mobile app industry is playing catch up. Apple recently announced it's developing its own accessibility tag system, called Accessibility Nutrition Labels . This feature will be introduced to the App Store later in the year.
