Asphalt 9 and other Gameloft games will receive Xbox Live support

[ad_1]

A few weeks ago, the news was announced that Xbox Live would install on Android and iOS games. While many expected that only Microsoft titles – such as Minecraft – support Xbox implementations and other features, it turns out that third-party developers are adopting the service. Today, Gameloft has announced that Xbox Live is appearing in some mobile games, starting with Asphalt 9: Legends, Asphalt 8: Airborne and Dragon Mania Legends. The company said that "this provides players with simplified access to popular Xbox Live features and newly available mobile features."

Players will unlock Xbox hits, view their Xbox friends list, compare their rankings with Xbox rankings, and more. The head of Gameloft, Baudouin Corman, said the following during the announcement.

We are excited to partner with Microsoft to bring the Xbox Live network to Gameloft's flagship games. As one of the first partners to support Xbox Live on mobile devices, we are looking to offer our community more ways to experience our games and make them more fun, while continuing to bring the console, the computer and the mobile closer together.

The new Xbox Live updates will come in these games next year. But that's not all, Gameloft said there would be more features and announcements to make in the future.
