Xbox Is Making It Easier To Pick Back Up Games On Console, PC, And More

Microsoft wants to ensure it’s easier to return to recently played games no matter what device you pick up. Your Xbox play history should now start syncing across consoles, PC, and eventually the ROG Xbox Ally, thanks to an August update rolling out now.

In other words, if you start playing Gears of War: Reloaded on your Xbox Series X|S, but then decide to move to your PC another day, the cover-based shooter should be ready to roll from your play history. Cloud-enabled games should also start appearing in your recently played list, according to Microsoft. That includes if you checked out a Game Pass title via the cloud or actually own it, such as an original Xbox game like The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.

This cross-device play history will obviously be a boon for the ROG Xbox Ally handhelds when they launch this October. Picking up where you left off in a game on the portable device while on the go is one of the system’s main selling points, though that title will have to be compatible with the ROG Xbox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X. While still in preview, Xbox is making it easier to track your owned games, too.

One thing Microsoft won’t reveal quite yet is the cost of the ROG Xbox Ally and ROG Xbox Ally X. There has been speculation–and Best Buy listings at one point–that the handheld devices could cost $550 and $900, respectively. For more, check out GameSpot’s ROG Xbox Ally X impressions.
