Industry Pundit Reveals That Microsoft Could Be Developing a Xbox Mobile Store for 2024

Microsoft is looking to expand its horizons radically. With the Xbox-Activision deal finalized, the tech giant is looking to broaden its boundaries as much as possible. With a plethora of titles including CoD and Overwatch coming under Microsoft’s wings, fans are excited to see how things unravel in the coming days. Post-acquisition of Activision-Blizzard, Microsoft may finally be focusing on changing the scenario.

Like its competitors, Microsoft is one of the leaders in the gaming industry at the moment. The company’s Xbox Game Pass is one of the most-subscribed memberships and generates a lot of revenue for the brand. However, Xbox doesn’t have a very prominent footprint when it comes to mobile gaming. However, things may change soon.

Xbox to introduce a Mobile Store?

Microsoft finally has received the green signal with the Activision-Blizzard takeover and fans of Xbox can’t be happier. The Xbox Game Pass is poised to include a long list of popular games in the coming days. While Microsoft is winning the Console Wars right now, it is still miles behind in terms of mobile gaming. However, the brand might be working on something behind closed doors that will be revealed in 2024, according to an industry expert.

An Xbox Mobile Store is rumored to be in the works and will make Microsoft a prominent name in the mobile gaming niche soon. Mobile gaming has experienced a boom in recent times, thanks to its relative affordability compared to consoles and PCs. With that in mind, Microsoft understandably wants to explore its opinions and reach out to more fans.

The news might hint that Xbox is probably working on bringing its popular titles to mobile devices. Call of Duty Mobile is a hugely popular game, and Xbox obviously wants a piece of the action.

More possibilities with the Xbox Game Pass update tomorrow?

The upcoming Xbox Mobile Store isn’t the only thing revealed by Tom Warren in the recent podcast. It has been revealed that Microsoft also updated its servers for the Xbox 360 with CoD coming under the brand’s fold. The Competitions and Market Authority (CMA) also approved the Microsoft-Activision deal in July despite the FTC case being concluded only recently.

The expert also believes that the acquisition will take some time to reflect on the market, especially in the EU. He mentions that the impacts might become apparent by the time of the next-gen consoles as well. However, with Xbox Game Pass dropping this Tuesday, we can also expect to see some older CoD titles being the star of the show.
