Running an Xbox One game on PC?

[Supportsneedlove]

Hi everyone. I've resent my heard that you can play Xbox One game from the Microsoft store. 

First of all I wound like to know if It's true. 

Second, could I buy a Skylanders game (mostly for nostalgic reasons) for the Xbox One and play it on PC?

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure you'd be able to, Xbox One and PC play pretty well together.

microsoft has games that are multiplatform compatible, if u buy them for xone u can also play it on pc and vice versa,    super lucky's tale   < example

 

however its only with compatible games

 

if the game isnt crossplatform compatible/multiplatform, no u cant,  its still a console and still has its exclusives thus not possible to play on pc , it  would be the same as trying to run a ps4 game on a pc in that case

Depending on the games you want to play you can also go the emulation route.

Also worth noting is that you can stream any XBox One game from your One to your PC. Of course, there is a small amount of lag just like Remote Play but unless you are playing competitively, I think you can live with it. I'm pretty sure you can stream any 360 or original XBox game as well. I think the XBox just streams a copy of the video feed so it doesn't matter what you are playing.

Do you happen to know if it would be possible with those games?

Would i need it connected to my PC via LAN or would network play be useable?

You can do it over LAN or over the internet. I've done it over my home network but I haven't done it online yet because I've been too lazy to do the setup.

 

Last I knew, the One doesn't exactly support streaming over the internet natively. 

 

You need to go through a setup and figure out how you plan to turn on the One remotely (I recommend using Team Viewer to turn it on from a local PC using the XBox app).

 

This should walk you through the setup. https://www.google.com/amp/s/kinkeadtech.com/how-to-stream-xbox-one-to-windows-10-from-anywhere-with-internet/amp/

I did mean over a local network. You said something about being able to stream any Xbox 360 or Original Xbox titel, does that mean they can stream as well or just older games?

It is, but you have to look at the store page.

Not all Games support that, only some do.

Xbox Play Anywhere

These select titles will play on your PC or Xbox One.  You have to buy them on the Microsoft Store.  A physical copy will only work on the platform you buy it on.

I haven't tested many but Gears of War 4 is an example of one working really well.  I've played many horde matches with my friends (them on Xbox One and me on PC).
