Here is the list of first Xbox Play Anywhere supported games as revealed by Microsoft:
- Gears of War 4,
- Forza Horizon 3,

Xbox Play Anywhere will make it possible for people on Windows 10 PC and XONE to play together, as well as share their game saves and achievements between the two platforms. The titles that support the service are going to be marked by a Play Anywhere icon in the digital store.
