Microsoft Is Launching Its Mobile Game Store Rivaling Apple and Google in July

Microsoft is set to launch its mobile game store in July, as announced by Xbox President Sarah Bond at the Bloomberg Technology Summit. Initially featuring Microsoft's games like Candy Crush Saga, the store will also open up to other publishers, likely including Minecraft early on. This web-based storefront aims to provide an alternative to the dominant Apple and Google app stores, potentially leveraging content from Microsoft's Activision Blizzard acquisition, including titles like Call of Duty: Mobile.
