You Can Now Access Gaming Library, Apps, and Play History with Xbox app on Windows PCs and Handheld

Starting today, we’re excited to share that new updates are rolling out for Xbox on PC and handheld that make it easier to launch and manage your games and apps – all in one place.

In response to feedback we’ve heard from Xbox Insiders and our community, we’ve introduced several new features to enhance your gaming experience on Windows PCs and handhelds. The aggregated gaming library, cross-device play history, and updated app functionality give you more control over how and where you play, helping you quickly jump back into the games you love.

Aggregated Gaming Library to Launch Your Games​

Bring your game collection together with the new aggregated gaming library that shows your installed games from multiple PC storefronts, including your Xbox library, Xbox Game Pass, Battle.net and other leading PC storefronts, making it easier than ever to access your games in one place, whether you’re on a Windows PC or handheld device.

When you install a game from a supported PC storefront, it automatically appears in “My Library” within the Xbox PC app, as well as the “Most Recent” list of titles in the sidebar, so you can jump back into your favorite games with just a click.

Control What You See in Your Library​

Games installed from supported PC storefronts will automatically appear in My Library and in the Most Recent section of the Xbox PC app.

Prefer a more simplified view?

• Select your profile picture
• Head to Settings
• Go to Library & Extensions
• Find the storefronts listed
• Toggle any listings you’d prefer not to see

Once disabled, those titles will no longer appear in your library, giving you full control over how your library looks and feels.

Get to other PC Storefronts Faster with My Apps​

This new tab in my library brings third-party apps and storefronts together in one convenient place, supporting the aggregated gaming library so you can find, download, and launch games from multiple locations, without switching between apps or your desktop.

Just Pick Up and Play​

Coming later in September your cloud-playable games and game play history will follow you across all your devices.

To find out which games are cloud playable, select the “cloud playable” filter in “My games” to view your catalog of supported titles.

Once this feature is released, look for the “Jump back in” list on the Home screen of your console, PC, or handheld to find your recent play history and pick up where you left off.
