Xbox Releases A Game-Changing Update For PC

Xbox Mode makes it simpler to play PC games with a controller on a full screen. You can easily switch between this dedicated gaming view and your regular Windows 11 desktop. It also gives you quick access to your Xbox Game Pass games and library. When you’re in Xbox Mode, apps run full screen, showing only one window at a time to minimize distractions. After initial testing with Windows Insider Preview builds in late 2025, Xbox Mode became available to everyone on Thursday, April 30th.
