Nothing is stopping them from releasing the APK standalone.
To this day I can't understand how one of the wealthiest corporations of the world ends up with Mattrick, Spencer and Bond at the helm of their gaming division. This unholy triunvirate has overseen TV, Kinect, and a blatant attempt at dumping by lowering the value of software, they tried and failed to spend everyone out of blockbuster access and yet, after a decade, they still haven't been able to produce a handful of good games from the massive stable of studios they gobbled up. Worse, they closed the studio that made the best game of their entire catalog. How, just how can these incompetent idiots keep failing upwards, please make it make sense.
Ohhhh no, poor Microsoft can't further their monopoly until they comply with court orders! Poor, poor corporation
Correction, MIcrosoft can't do this until Google complies with court orders.
Ohhhh no, poor Microsoft can't further their monopoly until GOOGLE comply with THEIR MONOPOLY-BREAKING court orders! Poor, poor MONOPOLIES
ftfy, i’m not sure which is worse
(well, one because it’s factually untrue… but…)
I dislike microsoft as much as the next guy, but xbox doesn't have a monopoly on phones, or really any presence at all. Competition on android is good for everyone but google.
Release it on fdroid
Yet Steam exists. If I was Microsoft I would be trying to improve the handheld experience on Windows. Launchers, games, and the os absolutely are not integrated and fight each other.
if only they had some way to ram an unwanted LLM into the windows handheld experience
They are doing that.
