Overview
Xbox is a lightweight game manager and storefront application developed directly by Microsoft to deliver high-quality PC gaming straight to the home PCs and gaming laptops. Built on top of the popular Xbox Live marketplace and Xbox publishing platform, this application manages to simplify the process of accessing high-quality console-grade titles that were published on Xbox One console. Instead of finding and downloading games from Windows Store on a title by title basis using the default store app, this dedicated gaming app provides access to all compatible titles with gamer-friendly interface, tools, filtering options, and services that are expected to be present by the modern gaming audience.
With the new Xbox app for Windows 10/11 PCs, play the games you love to play.

Additionally, the official Xbox app for Windows 10/Windows 11 is also fully compatible with Game Pass, an innovative subscription service that unlocks a large library of free games to all of the service members. With Game Pass and Xbox app, gamers from all around the world can enjoy dozens and dozens of high-quality games from leading software publishers, and even better, day-and-date addition to the library in the case of 1st party Xbox publisher and its partner teams.
Xbox app for Windows 11/10 features a stylish interface that resembles the more simplified version of Steam. It promotes new titles via eye-catching thumbnails and powerful search engine, has an in-depth library manager, download monitoring service, and built-in friendliest manager that showcases all online friends on both PC and Xbox One platforms.

In addition to accessing many of its features directly from the Xbox app, gamers can also expect to maintain the social connections and access to various other stats and services directly from inside the game. This is done with the presence of Xbox Game Bar, a background service that will appear as an overlay any time the power button is pressed on the Xbox One gamepads.
The official Xbox app for Windows 10 can be downloaded and used for FREE on Windows 10 and Windows 11 by simply visiting its official Windows Store page and clicking on “Get”.
