The Xbox Mobile Store Page Shows A ‘Coming Soon’ Message

A webpage for the Xbox Mobile Store is now live. While it currently displays a short message, Microsoft confirms that members of the Xbox Insider Program will be among the first to gain access.

Previously, Xbox promised to launch the mobile gaming store by July. While this may not have happened, August should be a huge month for the gaming giant as it works toward fulfilling a major goal.

With Candy Crush, Call of Duty Mobile, Diablo Immortals, and more expected to be offered, this store could soon become a huge platform for mobile gaming. Microsoft could also offer various other perks for Xbox users on the platform.
