Betting on ultra-connectivity and recovering the identity of a video game company
With the launch of this new application, Microsoft It does something that it would surely have liked to do through its own mobile operating system or at least from a XNUMX% Microsoft brand phone. With this new app, Microsoft systems and consoles are more connected than ever, especially thanks to that function of installing games from the app even with the console turned off.
