Microsoft Testing New Compact Mode in Xbox App for Windows 11 on Handheld Devices

Improving the Gaming Experience on Smaller Screens and Windows Handhelds

The ROG Ally from Asus is now emerging as a portable platform for enjoying Xbox Game Pass on PC, earning recognition from none other than Xbox chief Phil Spencer, who referred to it as his “Xbox on the go” in an interview with Eurogamer earlier this year. While the ROG Ally is gaining popularity as a portable gaming solution, there is still significant room for improvement. Spencer acknowledged this in a tweet in July, stating, “We are focused on making the Xbox and GP experience great on devices like the Ally… More to do.”
