As per The Verge, the new update makes the smartphone appear as if it is the game console Nintendo 3DS rather than a mobile phone. In a tweet shared by Tom Warren of The Verge, a demonstration of the update can be seen. A two-minute-long video shows how the dual-screen smartphone turns into a gaming console with Xbox Touch controls.
The update allows users to play several games like Minecraft Dungeons, Sea of Thieves, Maneater, Knockout City, and Gears 5.
Users can find the list of touch-compatible games on the official website of Xbox or they can also use a regular Bluetooth or Xbox controller in order to stream games to Surface Duo. The tech giant has tweaked the Xbox Cloud gaming in order for it to work better on Surface Duo.
Users can access the updated feature by visiting the Google Play Store. They can download the updated version of the Xbox Game Pass in order to browse and play games on their mobile devices.
