Sony’s major franchises remain largely exclusive to PlayStation consoles, with limited cross-platform availability. However, a recent update to the Xbox PC app has introduced a new aggregated game library feature that allows users to view games from various PC stores, including Epic and Steam. This means that PlayStation games ported to PC, such as “Spider-Man: Miles Morales,” can now appear within the Xbox app.
This development aligns with Microsoft’s confirmation that the upcoming ROG Xbox Ally handheld device will support Sony PlayStation games already released on PC. However, these PlayStation ports on Xbox do not include Xbox achievements or additional features.
Microsoft’s broader strategy appears to be transforming Xbox into a platform akin to Steam, aiming for collaboration rather than competition with Valve’s service. Xbox president Sarah Bond has shared insights about the next-generation Xbox console, emphasizing that games will not be locked to a single console or store.
Recent reports indicate that Microsoft has canceled plans for a dedicated Xbox handheld, instead supporting devices like the ROG Xbox Ally and other third-party hardware. Additionally, Xbox and Meta have collaborated to release a limited-time Meta Quest 3S Xbox edition.
