Microsoft and ASUS just have announced two Rog Xbox ally devices that include a new Xbox experience on a full screen for Handhelds. After the promise to collect “Best of Xbox and Windows togetherFor Handhelds earlier this year, Microsoft now reveals exactly how Xbox, game tape, and Windows itself to compete better with Steamos.
Microsoft Required to respond to steamos Since Steam Deck was launched three years ago, it has been steadily modified and Xbox and Xbox game tape on Windows to make both of them more convenient with hand. But there has always been a greater repair of the required windows, and we started to see parts of that day.
“The Reality is that we’ve Made Trendous Progress on this Over the Last Couple of Years, and this is real the Device that Galvanized Those Teams and Got Everybody Marching and Working Towards a Moment that we’re just really Excited to pubst freedom.
Microsoft showed this hand -friendly collection of Windows and Xbox to The Verge in a briefing earlier this week, but it was a virtual offer so we couldn’t completely try it yet. Everything starts to pave directly in a new experience on the Xbox screen on the new Xbox screen on Rog Xbox ALY devices that focus on the Xbox and Bar Game application, as well as being a launcher for all your computer games-yes to Steam.
“We have been able to take the people working on the Xbox OS operating system for 20 years or more and make them work directly on the base of Windows code and start re -imagining the form of the operating system of this factor,” explains Jason Boomon, Vice President of Experience at Xbox. “We have prompted these two matters to build a set of features.”
The Xbox experience is largely the compact mode of the Xbox app that fully controls the ROG Xbox ally devices, instead of the fashionable Windows desktop and taskbar. “When the player feeds the experiment on the screen on a full screen, there is a full range of things that are not loaded,” says beaumont. “We are not downloading the desktop background, taskbar, or a set of truly designed operations around windows production scenarios.”
You can still get out of this mode on the full screen and launch the full version of the Windows desktop, but by default it will be hidden away. “We have reduced many notifications and population windows, and we will continue to listen to players’ comments to make ongoing improvements,” says Sones.
Xbox itself is similar to the situation on the full screen what is on Windows at the present time, except for the library now full of all computer games from Steam and other stores, along with those in Xbox Play anywhere and Pass Game. It becomes really interesting is the game bar.
“We have made a lot of improvements on the game tape over the past year, and in fact he was driving his car towards this device,” says Brya Boutevin, the main software of software engineering at Xbox. It provokes short pressure on the Xbox button on Xbox ALY. Copilot games. If you have long pressed the XBOX button, you will even get an important hand converter, allowing the Alt+tab between applications and games using the console.
I will need to try this new interface completely to learn about Windows changes here, but Microsoft promises that this is not just a lipstick on the head of Windows. “These are not changes at the surface level,” says Boutevin. “We have made significant improvements,” says Boutevin. “Some of our early tests with the ingredients that we stopped in Windows, we get about 2 GB of memory, return to games while playing in the trial on the full screen.”
This is a good step to improve Windows’s performance on a portable, but one of the big comments about the mobile experience is sleeping state as it often attracts Windows devices with a lot of battery life when you are in lethargy.
“If you are preparing your device in the trial on the full screen and you put it below and you will sleep, it will draw a third of the lethargy energy than if it is running the same device in [Windows] Desktop experience, “Potvin is still. Windows.
This updated Xbox app will now work as a bacterium for all your computer games, but you will remain able to interact with Windows apps and those other launchers freely in this portable trial on the screen. Sones says Microsoft “is working closely with the leading store fronts to make it improve the screen filling experience”, to facilitate everyone playing a full library of computer games from Steam, Epic Games Store and other places.
Sonones says: “The Games Games will be available inside Xbox on the personal computer for all Windows 11 devices,” so you will soon be able to see all your Steam games inside the Xbox app on any computer.
Microsoft also creates its own version of the Valve’s Steam Dec Xbox Cloud or Play from a distance from the Xbox control device, but most Console games will not be available unless there is part of PC anywhere.
The best part of all these changes in Windows is that you will not necessarily need a new device to benefit from. Sones says: “The fully screen Xbox experience will come first to Rog Xbox ALY and ROG Xbox ally X, and we will be focused on the Rog Rog ally in the market and Rog Ally X,” says Sones. “Xbox experiments will be released on a full screen on the screen on a full screen to the portable Windows, which begins next year.”
The valve is also Steamos support on Rouge allySo we should be able to compare mobile operating systems in Microsoft and Microsoft on the same devices soon. We don’t yet know whether Microsoft has done enough to prevent other computers from seduction to Steamos Like LenovoBut Microsoft’s efforts are already preparing a battle between Windows and Linux for the future of laptops for mobile games.
