NEW CLAIMS ON WHAT “XBOX ON EVERY SCREEN” MEANS
For the past few months and years, Microsoft has been talking a lot about bringing Xbox to “every screen”. While details on that remain both scarce and confusing, a new claim from journalist Jez Corden of Windows Central gives a bit of insight into what they looks like.
In speaking on his The Xbox Two podcast, Corden spoke about what he’s heard about the cocept.
“I actually have some details on exactly what Xbox on every screen looks like now,” he said. “And I think what it is, is that every Xbox game will have a consistent social UI across all the games, so like if you’re playing Sea of Thieves, for example, on the PlayStation, you will be able to bring up a mini Xbox guide, or something like that. Kind of like Battlenet, sort of.”
Corden then added that it’s at the point in development that it has a codename within Xbox called Roseway.
Obviously this is likely just a small part of Microsoft’s larger plan for an “Xbox on every screen”. The company is still working on next-gen hardware, a possible handheld device, and even improvements to its cloud gaming offering.
What do you think of a universal Xbox UI across Xbox first party games on other platforms?
