I can bet this game will stay as a PC exclusive and won't be ever released on Xbox. About pushing PC really hard. Yes, because software-wise they've done way more for PC gaming than for the console this year. Age of Empires trilogy remaster. Age of Empires 4. Some other RTS I don't remember the name crossplay support between WinStore and Steam. While the only thing console gamers got from them this year is an upgraded console.

See, now you've narrowed an entire gen down to a single year for pushing towards PC. I was on about this gen so far, not a year where it obviously looked good from MS's side.

By the end of the gen, they'll have pushed more for their console sdie than PC, otherwise, if they truly pushed more for PC, their Xbox division would be in complete shambles than it's current state now.

What's with that entire gen point? They changed their strategy only last year and it is definitely obvious that now they are very PC-focused. For example, yesterday at gamescom they've been talking about Forza 7 and how great it will play on PC and that it is the best version of the game and almost nothing was said about how great it plays on Xbox One X - their new console. It seems to me that they gave up on Xbox in Europe and will try to push PC here. The only region where Xbox consoles will be marketed really well is US as it seems right now.

crossplay support between Steam and Win 10 store users?, I don't recall that being a distinct thing, what games share players between Steam and win 10 store?.

Rise of Nations: Extended Cut. This game will have cross-play between Windows Store and Steam. And I can bet that there will be more of them to come.
