Hello everyone! We are launching a new section on our blog, which will be published quarterly. Here we are telling you about all the news from the world of mobile games and applications that have surprised us over a certain period of time. And now we want you to know about main novelties that have been presented since the beginning of January 2023.


 

Microsoft Xbox Mobile Gaming Store

Talk about a store for mobile games and applications from Xbox has been going on for five years. And finally, it has been announced that the online store for iOs and Android phones will be available in 2024. Active work on the store continued thanks to a new EU’s Digital Market Act that allows you to install applications from third-party sources. Thus, Apple and Google will be required to open their platforms to other stores. This will allow mobile phone users to have products that were previously available only to owners of the Xbox consoles. Despite a huge package of bureaucratic actions by all parties to the treaty, there is a high probability that the opportunities for mobile gamers will become even greater than before.

We all know that Netflix is one of the most successful and convenient platforms for watching movies and TV shows from all over the world.

New Gaming Phone Is Coming

Very soon, and more precisely in April 2023, Asus promises to release a new model of its ROG Phone 7. The previous models of the series have already become legendary among gamers. This phone is in the top among fans of mobile games. It is currently known that at least one phone in the latest series will use the top-end Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. The new generation of Asus phones will feature three models: basic, Ultimate and, so to speak, an intermediate version ROG Phone 7D. Manufacturers say that all phones will be equipped with an AMOLED display and come with the latest Android 13 with a gaming skin on top. The novelty will debut on April 13 in India, as well as in Taiwan, Germany and the United States on the same day. At first glance, the new Asus gaming phone does not differ from previous models in power. But we will look forward to feedback from gamers after the release.
