Microsoft's 'Xbox Mode' Is Coming To Every Windows 11 PC

In April, Microsoft will be rolling out a full-screen "Xbox mode" to all Windows 11 PCs, including laptops, desktops, and tablets.

The Verge reports: Technically, you've been able to try the Xbox Full Screen Experience (FSE) in preview since November 2025, if you were part of both the Windows Insider and Xbox Insider Programs.

At its annual GO-GET event, the company said U.S. users can now book hotels inside Uber through an Expedia Group partnership, with the selection expected to grow to more than 700,000 properties worldwide. ...
