Xbox
After years of community requests, Phil Spencer has officially announced a major update for the Xbox app on PC. The announcement was released in a long interview with the CEO of Microsoft Gaming and subsequently reported on Twitter by Tom Warren, journalist of The Verge.
Phil Spencer specified that the update to the Xbox app will mark, somehow, the beginning of the first Xbox Game Studios productions. "We have listened to the community a lot and it is clear that too long has passed since we launched a really important game of internal production", the words of Spencer, who accused COVID-19 of slowing down some productions. 2023 will therefore mark a new year for the Microsoft brand, with the arrival of games such as RedFall and Starfield, as well as Forza Motorsport.
The update of the Xbox app on PC is, however, a further important factor of strength: for years the community has been asking for a revamp of the application, which very often has presented itself and updated with several bugs, one of which prevents you from eliminating space from the hard disk or SSD even after having successfully uninstalled a game. The hope for users is that the new app will be more functional, faster and above all free of any kind of serious error.
Microsoft's Xbox chief: “One thing we've heard loud and clear is that it's been too long since we shipped what people would say was a big first-party game. ”

When will this substantial update arrive? The exact date is not there yet, but Phil Spencer has promised that it will take 7 to 14 days before we can see the updated Xbox apps on all Windows 10 and Windows 11 PCs. Clearly it will be necessary to wait for an official announcement, which will anticipate the various news of this update. However, it is not excluded that Microsoft has decided to retire the Companion application of the console, to bring everything together under one roof.
