    Xbox Play Anywhere is NOT an emulator. The Xbox Play Anywhere games are compiled for the Windows 10 PC platform as well as Xbox. There is no emulation going on, which would unnecessarily slow down the games. They run natively on Windows 10, not an emulated
    Xbox environment.

    Xbox 360 games on W10?

    Hi,

    Games on Xbox 360 are currently not accessible on a Windows 10 platform due to its system requirements.

    Instead, we have Xbox Play Anywhere - a digital entitlement that lets you play on both Xbox One and Windows 10 PC at no additional cost. To take advantage of Xbox Play Anywhere, you will need to install the Windows 10 Anniversary Edition update on your PC,
    as well as the latest update on your Xbox One console. Then, simply log into your Xbox Live/Microsoft account and your Xbox Play Anywhere games will be available to download. On your Xbox One, games will show as “Ready to Install” under “My Games and Apps”.
    On your Windows 10 PC, games will appear in “My Library.”

    For more information about Xbox Play Anywhere, feel free to visit this

    .

    Regards.

    ... Xbox Play Anywhere is an official Xbox emulator for PCs running Windows 10. Games that are also on Xbox and are going to play on PC are not a PC platform!

    Cross compatibility between Xbox Games and Windows 10 PC

    A number of games are what is known as Xbox Play Anywhere. This allows them to be available to both Xbox One and Windows 10. Unfortunately, that only works in digital format. Disc-based games for Xbox One will only work on Xbox One, and are not compatible
    with Windows 10, even if the actual game is available as Xbox Play Anywhere (unfortunately, SW Battlefront is not Play Anywhere).

    Why Minecraft does not work on XBox X or why Windows store confuses the customers?

    Hi there,

    Thanks for reaching out. I'm sorry to hear about the issue with
    Minecraft Windows 10 Edition.
    In reference to your question, if the game was purchase for Windows 10 the license will only work on the PC. Take Forza 4 for instance, this is know as a play anywhere games. Check out this link:
