This feature is so underrated. Microsoft should really advertise this more

It's underrated for a very simple reason - it's very niche. The amount of people who play on Xbox console and PC at the same time, like Jez Corden does is really really low. The issue is not advertising of the feature, but more like it not having a widespread appeal by design

I do not know who or what is a Jez Corden and why he/it matters :)

But I'm afraid I have to disagree that it is a niche. A lot of people have a console and a PC (and phone); and being able to buy one game and play it everywhere, should matter to everyone IMO. I get that even if you have a PC, it does not mean that you will play on it if you have a console.

I have 5 Xboxes and 5 PCs at home (all my kids have both a PC and an Xbox), and they are all playing on both devices. If you look at people with kids (and I would not consider this a niche); then right there, it brings a lot of value; people can just buy a console and a PC to get the best world (and it is the case for many) but then not have to buy games on both devices (which is ridiculous).

I would say that more people would do that if they knew this was possible in the first place and second if other publishers would do the same. Cause even if they know Xbox is doing that; they know it will not be possible with the rest so they probably go for a second console to save costs at the end...
