Overview
- Microsoft is rolling out an aggregated library in the Xbox app that lists and launches installed games from supported storefronts such as Steam, Epic Games Store, GOG, and Battle.net.
- Users can start titles directly from the Xbox app and see recent activity regardless of where the game was installed, improving controller-friendly navigation on PCs and handhelds.
- A new My apps tab centralizes third‑party launchers and utilities, making it easier to install or open other stores without leaving the Xbox app.
- Library visibility is configurable via Settings → Library & Extensions, allowing players to toggle storefront sources on or off.
- Microsoft says a follow‑up update later in September will sync cloud‑playable titles and a unified “Jump back in” play history across console, PC, and handheld, while some non‑Xbox games currently show limited metadata as the staged rollout continues.
