Additionally, Microsoft is also working closely with Samsung to develop an Xbox game-streaming app for the tech giant’s TVs. This app will also be released in a year. Maybe we get both of these at the same event.

Microsoft is quite active in bringing the new games to its Xbox console. Last week, the company signed a deal with Epic Games to offer Fortnite for free through Xbox Cloud Gaming. The move lets people play Fortnite on phones and other devices in a way similar to how they stream videos on services like Netflix, with no need for a power console or gaming PC.

Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass Ultimate costs $15 a month. It offers subscribers access to hundreds of games, EA Play perks and discounts. On the other hand, Xbox Gold costs $10 a month. It focuses on online multiplayer games.
