During their E3 conference, Microsoft have just announced their new programme: Xbox Play Anywhere. It’s a system that allows gamers to simultaneously own a title on both Xbox One and Windows 10.
The first game announced to be released with Play Anywhere is Gears of War 4, coming later this year. Not only will gamers own the game on both formats, but it’ll be cross play too – so PC players can game with Xbox One players, and vice versa.
It’s pretty exciting news, and is a great step forward in unified gaming.
Oh, and Gears 4 looks awesome.

Kim's been into video games since playing Dizzy on her brother's Commodore 64 as a nipper. She'll give just about anything a go, but she's got a particular soft spot for indie adventures, roguelikes and puzzle games. If she's not gaming, she's probably got her nose in a book, and you can find her bookish musings on her blog at What The Book. She's also freelanced in several places, writes about Lego at That Brick Site, and is constantly thinking about new projects she'll undoubtedly quickly abandon.
