#Xbox integration handheld

This makes it the first handheld outside of Asus’ Xbox Ally series to receive the feature. With its upgraded design and upcoming Xbox integration, the Legion Go 2 is positioning itself as one of the most advanced Windows handhelds on the market. The integration would allow users to run Steam more smoothly and directly from Windows environments and, in the future, Xbox environments. Jez Corden of Windows Central previously reported that Xbox has been in talks with PC storefront owners, including Valve, about potential integration with future hardware. The rumored next-generation Xbox strategy includes a successor to the Xbox Series X paired with a handheld device, both expected to release in 2027. If realized, Steam integration could allow Xbox users to access a vast library of PC titles, including indie games and user-created content, directly from their consoles. Reports point to Microsoft’s next Xbox handheld console, expected around 2027, featuring a Switch-like docking system that could transform the way gamers play across devices. Microsoft has confirmed an Xbox-branded handheld is in development, with insiders hinting at two distinct devices: one tentatively entering the market as early as late 2025 through an OEM partner, and another built in-house aiming for a 2027 launch.
