Microsoft has announced that they will release the Xbox app for 2022 Samsung Smart TVs including Neo QLED 8K, Neo QLED 4K, QLEDs, and Smart Monitor Series on 30 June 2022.

Xbox app now on Smart TVs

Playing Xbox games on 2022 Samsung Smart TVs gives Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members easy and instant access to over 100 high-quality games, including Xbox Game Studios titles on the same day they release.

The Xbox app on Smart TVs presents new opportunities to play:

• If you are getting a new Samsung 2022 Smart TV, you will now have more ways to play games in your house.
• If you’re new to gaming, this is an easy way to get into the fun without needing to buy a PC or console and also to join a thriving community of over 25 million Game Pass members worldwide.

We are bringing the Xbox App to Samsung Smart TVs first, and our intent is to explore other TV partnerships as part of this next evolution in our vision.
