This month brings a variety of exciting updates across our gaming platforms, including easy and convenient purchasing within the Xbox app on mobile, the ability to stream your own game on Xbox consoles, recommended ways to free up storage space, and more. Read on below for more information on these features and others coming soon to your favorite devices.
Xbox App on Mobile
Buy games, Join Game Pass, and Redeem Perks Directly from the Xbox app. We're excited to announce that one of the most requested features from the Xbox community is coming to the Xbox app. Players will soon be able to buy games and add-on content, join Game Pass, and redeem Perks directly from the Xbox app on mobile. Be ready to play on day one by pre-ordering games like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 and then set it to pre-install on Xbox consoles from the app. Buy games like Assassin's Creed Shadows and MLB The Show 25. Players will also be able to join Game Pass directly from the Xbox app. Ultimate members can redeem Perks like the Sea of Thieves Seventh Serving Emote directly from the app. This experience will start to roll out to beta users on iOS and Android and will be available soon for everyone on the Google Play Store on Android devices and the Apple Store. If players already have a saved form of payment, the Xbox app will display a Buy button on game detail pages, allowing them to purchase games and add-on content with just two clicks.
Xbox Consoles
Stream Your Own Game - Now on Xbox Consoles. Game Pass Ultimate members can now stream select games they own in addition to the Game Pass catalog on their Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles. This will broaden the previously announced devices from November, that includes Samsung Smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV devices, Meta Quest headsets as well as other browser supported devices like PCs, smartphones and tablets. Members can save time and hard drive space and play their games immediately without needing to download and install them first.
To start streaming from an Xbox console, go to My games & apps > Full library > Owned Games.
Stream Your Own Game - Over 100+ Games
We're continuing to add more games to the Stream your own game collection for Xbox Cloud Gaming (Beta). Game Pass Ultimate members can stream from a library of over 100+ cloud playable games on supported devices.

Access Xbox Remote Play From More Devices
Players can now play any game installed on their console by visiting xbox.com/remoteplay on any device with a supported web browser. While access to Xbox remote play will no longer be available directly from the Xbox app on mobile, players will still be able to play from their mobile device's browsers.
In addition to streaming from the web, players will soon be able to access Xbox remote play on more devices, including supported Samsung Smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV devices, and Meta Quest headsets. By unifying Xbox remote play and Xbox Cloud Gaming on Xbox.com, we're able to support more devices, open access to the store on the Xbox app on mobile, and make it easier for our teams to optimize the streaming experience and build new features going forward.
As a bonus, starting this month, backward compatible games from the original Xbox and Xbox 360 will be streamable via remote play across all supported devices.
Free Up Space in My Games & Apps
With the latest update, we are introducing a new and improved way to free up storage space on all Xbox consoles.
In addition to displaying unused add-ons and shrinkable games, we will now include recommendations for removing duplicate copies of games and games that players no longer have access to. Try out this feature by heading to My Games & Apps > Manage > Free up space.
Game Hubs
New game hubs on Xbox consoles have arrived. Game hubs include relevant information about the game selected, such as player stats, achievements, friends currently playing the game, recent captures, available add-ons, events, and more.
For a subset of players, game hubs will appear whenever a player selects a game from their recently played games or installed games lists. The default focus in game hubs is always on the Play button, so players can jump right into the action with a quick double-tap from the game tile to start playing.
A new setting has been introduced that allows players to launch games directly, instead of through game hubs has also been added. To activate it go to the personalization settings or to My games & apps > Manage > Games & apps.
In Case You Missed It
Xbox Consoles - South of Midnight Dynamic Background. South of Midnight introduced a new dynamic background for Xbox Series X|S consoles, allowing fans to customize their consoles to match this exciting new game.
To learn how to customize your Xbox Series X|S console by choosing a dynamic background, visit the Xbox Support page.
